Summary
"First published as And As I Rode Out on the Morning, Buck Ramsey's epic poem of cowboy life is a classic. In this edition, the editors have restored the poem's original title, Grass, and have gathered insightful commentaries on Ramsey's work from poets, musicians, historians, and others devoted to the cowboy way and movement. Completing the package are Ramsey's original short story on which he based the poem and a CD of the original 1990 recording of Ramsey performing Grass in John Hartford's home studio in Nashville, introduced by Andy Wilkinson."--BOOK JACKET.
