In the early 1970s, Texas historian Joe Frantz offered Bill Wittliff an opportunity to visit a ranch in northern Mexico where the vaqueros still worked cattle in the traditional ways. This book contains photographs revealing the efforts that went into roping a calf in thick brush or breaking a wild horse to the saddle.
