Book excerpt: Winner, 2022 Wrangler Award - Western Heritage Awards Winner, 2022 Spur Award - Western Writers of America "Cow Boyhood is unapologetically traditional in its valorizing of grit, stoicism and manliness." - The Wall Street Journal Thirteen-year-old Wilder has spent his boyhood watching men like his grandpa Papa Milam . . . and wanting to be like them. Now he is leaving on a two day cattle drive through river and canyon country with his aging Papa and another older man, Red Guffey. In big ranch country full of livestock and wild animals, Wilder is forced to recognize that his own instincts and abilities may have become greater than those of his heroes.
