Rocking horses, wild horses, fishing boats, hot boats, cars, trucks, cycles, and planes-Robert Buenger has been involuntarily launched by them all. And he seldom, if ever, pulled over for an ambulance. He was generally riding inside. For some reason, if a rock fell off a cliff and hit someone, it was Buenger. If someone ran into the back of a semitruck or had a fireworks display blow up in his face, it was Buenger. If a guy broke his wrist riding a longhorn steer on the last cattle drive to St. Louis-that was Buenger too. A spirited quest for adventure brought on a goodly share of these exploits. AN OLD KID FROM WYOMING chronicles the often extraordinary events in the lifetime of a homesteader's grandson and the critters and all-too-human personalities along the trail-some historical, some hysterical, a few sad, all true (or mostly true). Here are stories of growing up, hunting, fishing, building, cowboying, and adventuring in the Rocky Mountain West, from Cheyenne to Las Vegas and back again. In the tradition of James Herriot and Ben K. Green, AN OLD KID FROM WYOMING serves up stories to be savored one at a time or all at once-stories for everyone interested in the era of the "Greatest Generation" from the perspective of a life lived in another little house on the prairie.
