A Vaquero of the Brush Country: The Life and Times of John D. Young ReviewIt is great to see a new edition of this Western classic which now correctly attributes authorship to John D. Young and J. Frank Dobie jointly. This autobiography preserves stories, facts, and history of the Texas cattle industry of the 1870s and 1880s not found anywhere else. It is also the entertaining story of John Young, who was himself worth writing about.
That being said, the cover photo of the new edition is very odd. It appears to be a photo of a recent-era "vaquero" wearing modern clothes including a jacket with snaps - obviously not available in the late 19th century! This photo has nothing to do with the life of John Young or the era and events which are the subject of "Vaquero." The use of this inappropriate photo is particularly strange, since there are so many great art works and photos which dramatically depict the brush country and the vaqueros who worked and lived the the Texas of that time.
Maybe the publisher, Uniiversity of Texas Press, will choose a better cover for the next edition.
