"Cowboy" is a smile-inducing glimpse into the "whats, whys and hows" of American cowboy life. I've been around horses and "horse people" for many years, and still found myself every few pages realizing"...I did not know that!" Rocco and Matt have combined old west history, cowboy etiquette,and partical ranch skills with a touch of humor to give us wannabes a primer on the "Cowboy Way." A truly entertaining book-had me deep in thought one minute and grinnin the next...I strongly recommend it!
Entertaining and Informative July 8, 2010

The book was fun and easy to read - I really enjoyed the "Rocco says" sections as well as the Trivia. I recently started riding horses and have become more interested in the Cowboy way of life. The book provides a lot of information in an entertaining format. I hope there are more to books to follow.
A Must Read & a Great Gift July 9, 2010

Cowboy The Ultimate Guide is an absolute Must Read for all ages. From cover to cover it is a fun filled adventure.
The book is a "real deal" look into the Cowboy Way of Life. The cowboy and ranching trivia were so informative.
Rocco and Matt have managed to keep it an "easy read" and a book that you just don't want to put down. I can't wait to try some of the recipes too.
The best part of the book were the "Rocco Says" ..... You will just have to pick up a copy of your own.
I purchased a book for myself and two more for gifts.
