Book Description
Western and cowboy poetry capturing glimpses of both serious and humourous aspects of life in the west...from "Crouchmas" to "Calving Season" and from "Four-Letter Words" to "Western Sunset." While the poems are reality-based, the author has not hesitated to exercise the cowboy's propensity to embellish the truth.

Book Description
Clark Crouch, a prize-winning cowboy poet, returns with his eighth book, Harkin' Home, a collection of original poems and short stories. From the allegorical beauty of a "Red Prairie Rose" to such verses as the fantasy of "Dead Man's Gun," the brutality of "Massacre," the defense of "Chopin's Minute Waltz," and hemp tricks by "Ropin' Fool," he offers a generous view of the humor and the pathos of life in the Great American West. A two-time winner of the Will Rogers Medallion Award for Cowboy Poetry, his work reflects viewpoints and biases which grew out of life during the Great Depression, years of drought in the Sandhills of Nebraska, and six youthful years earning his own way as a cowboy from the age of twelve.

Book Description
Eight contemporary poets share their varied views about the Great American West.

It's all captured in western poetic style. Featured poets are: Kenneth Garcia, Debra Meyer, Del Gustafson, Steve Dickson, Virginia Cook, Stephen Foster, J. Wesley Taylor Sr., and Clark Crouch.

Book Description
The author, a prize-winning cowboy poet, delivers the reality of the West through this, his third collection of original western and cowboy poetry. His work is pointed toward remembering, preserving, sharing, and celebrating our western and cowboy heritage and traditions. The poems are drawn, primarily, from his experience as a young cowboy in the Sandhills of Nebraska in the 1930's and 1940's. They are also influenced by his pre-teen acquaintance with Badger Clark, the classic cowboy poet, who was then Poet Laureate of South Dakota.
