Frank Dobie. As a narrative of cowboy life, Andy Adams' book is clearly the real thing. It carries its own certificate of authentic first-hand experience on every page. - Chicago Herald. Since the movie producers have little regard for actuality, we must look to literature to preserve the truth of the cattle trail era for us... Andy Adams did it excellently well when he wrote The Log of a Cowboy. Adams spent twelve years in the saddle in Texas. He began writing when broke after seeing a ludicrous and false depiction of cattle-range life... The Log of a Cowboy is the work of a realist. - The New Republic.
