    This is an outstanding book. The photogaphy is phenominal. As Bob Moorhouse carried his camera with him as went about his job as manager of the Ptichfork, he was able to capture scenes a normal photogapher woulld miss. For anyone interested in the historical work of a cowboy this book is priceless.
