Seasons on a Ranch

The book takes one on a journey through the seasons of a working cattle ranch in Northern Wyoming. The reader lives alongside the author and her family as they trail cattle to haul to market, and fight biting winter cold and fierce blizzards. Written from the perspective of a rancher and a woman, the book gives a much different perspective than the usual books on ranching, written by men. It also takes place in the modern day world, where trailers have replaced long horseback rides, and pickups have replaced hay wagons drawn by horse. Still, much is the same in ranching as it was 100 years ago. Horses are still an important part of ranch work, and cattle are still trailed from pasture to pastures and brands are still applied to the young calves to give proof of ownership. For anyone who has always wanted to live on a ranch, or for those who once lived on a ranch and want to remember it, this book is for you.
