Lone Hand Western
There are many other good sites on the web dealing with the Old West and re-enacting. Here are some of my favorites.
Top Hands ********************
It has been a long time since a cowboy singer has come along that is oriented toward kids. We are talking good, wholesome, fun cowboy music. I guess I qualify as an old kid because I keep playing Buck Howdy's new album, "Skidaddle", over and over and over........ The Buck Howdy web site is an absolute hoot for anyone to visit. Those buggy eyed horses never fail to crack me up. Saddle up and visit Buck Howdy. ********************
Jon Chandler - Mr. Chandler is probably one of the most impressive "western" song writers to come around in a long while. Not only that, the guy is an award winning book writer. "Spanish Peaks" will knock your socks off. Just one review --- The Spanish Peaks reminds us that
human beings are essentially alone. The Author pities them, loves them,
and grieves with them...The rich narrative, interesting characters, and exciting
action make this a memorable book. He's in touch with "Western"!!! ********************
********************
Old West Alive - I had the pleasure of meeting Thadd Turner. This is a guy who literally lives the Old West. Mr. Turner is an important author who really knows his old west history. He can shoot the eye out of a gnat, and he even does stunt work - that means he falls off of horses on purpose - which is something I do very well naturally. Gets my vote!!!!! ********************
CowBoyPoetry.com Home of the largest collection of cowboy poetry on the internet. This is really a beautiful site. Just screams cowboy!!! ********************
Lone Hand Great Buckaroos Kirkpatrick Leather These folks build some of the best holsters in the business including those great looking Hollywood and Old West rigs. They are bound to have something that will tickle your fancy. The Buffalo Soldiers A wonderful presentation of an important part of western history. A great resource for fans of the buffalo soldiers and the Indian wars of the west. SouthWest Sam Here is a multi period old west re-enactor with a real good looking site. Good source of information. Wildest Westerns Magazine Where your favorite classic and contemporary westerns are showcased along with the heroes and villains who shaped them. CowBoyPoetry.com, home of the largest collection of cowboy poetry on the internet. This is really a beautiful site. Chip Coopers Old West Cartoons I think Chip says it best "One thing I feel is lacking in a lot of western publications is humor. That's all the more sad because the West has one of the best traditions for it in the world. Whether it's tall tales, "hoorawing" your buddies on the drive, or just swapping jokes with your friends, the West was and still is rich in humorous lore" This site will make your day for you. Give it a visit. Wild West A wonderful site loaded with Old West history and some good music to boot. ******************** Non award winners but some great OLD WEST LINKS
