Among the most charming features of the Log are the stories the cowhands told around the fires at night when the day's work was done. Similar and equally delightful stories are scattered throughout several other less successful novels, long out of print, while others that never saw publication were found by the editor among Adams' papers.\n\nIn the present book, Wilson M. Hudson has gathered together these tales of the trail and camp into one volume that surely will delight the he.
