Unless unhorsed by this infrequent cause, he rode until he received injury that promised permanence, or he sooner voluntarily retired. Physical injury, ordinarily the gift of bucking, and in the form of hernia, allowed to the average man but seven years of active riding. Once dropped from the centaurs, whether through injury or, much rarer, loss of riding nerve, he still lived on horseback, but regretfully, humiliatingly refrained from "hair-pinning" or "forking" at sight "anything on four hoofs," and restricted himself to such animals as supposedly were not vicious.

Excerpt from The Cowboy: His Characteristics, His Equipment, and His Part in the Development of the West The American cowboy, by reason of his picturesqueness, has been a frequent subject for the dramatist, the novelist, the illustrator, and the motion-picture photographer. All these producers have been limited by the technical requirements of their arts, and have stressed the cowboy's picturesqueness to the exclusion of his other qualities. They have done this so definitely and attractively as to create an ostensible type which rapidly is being accepted by the American public as an accurate portrait of the now bygone puncher. The portrait is often charmingly presented, but it is not accurate. The cowboy was far more than a theatric char acter. He was an affirmative, constructive factor in the social and political development of the United States. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
