Focusing on Montana, Southern Alberta, Southern Saskatchewan, and the well-known figure of Charlie Russell - an artist and storyteller from that era who spent time on both sides of the border - Elofson examines the lives of cowboys and ranch owners, looking closely at the prevalence of drunkenness, prostitution, gunplay, rustling, and vigilante justice in both Canada and the United States. 606 $aRanch life$zMontana$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aRanch life$zPrairie Provinces$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aFrontier and pioneer life$zMontana 606 $aFrontier and pioneer life$zPrairie Provinces 606 $aCowboys$zMontana$vBiography 606 $aCowboys$zPrairie Provinces$vBiography 606 $aArtists$zUnited States$vBiography 607 $aMontana$xSocial life and customs$y19th century 607 $aPrairie Provinces$xSocial life and customs$y19th century 615 0$aRanch life$xHistory 615 0$aRanch life$xHistory 615 0$aFrontier and pioneer life 615 0$aFrontier and pioneer life 615 0$aCowboys 615 0$aCowboys 615 0$aArtists 676 $a978.6/01 700 $aElofson$b W.
