I bought this book when it first came out. We've lived in Grant, Montana and Kilgore and Hamer, Idaho, where some of these photos were taken. I've met every man on the cover and I've been fortunate enough to have some of these men sit at my dinner table with us. We've also been lucky enough to work side by side with these men and are proud to call them friends. They are the real thing. David Stocklein captures the true essence of the west and these men with his photos. Great Photography, plus, great men to work with. Well done.
Cowboy Gear by David Stoecklein offers a rare glimpse into the real life trappings of both modern day and old time cowboys. His taste for the real western spirit shines through. I have had the opportunity to meet Mr. Stoecklein on several occasions and truly feel he has a love of the cowboy lifestyle that is evident in his pictures. This book is a real history lesson for those interested in cowboy gear.
This visual display is a lavish coffee table book suitable for any cowboy enthusiast: it gathers photos of early cowboys and their equipment, focusing on the gear and the finest products made. Cowboy Gear will prove startling in several ways: not only is the overall variety of gear a highlight, but many of the photos are in color for the first time. Cowboy Gear comes from a collector and a rancher whose work is exceptional.
I loved this book and the different ways the cowboys dressed according to area and the times. They all had style and still do. I learned alot about how important a cowboys outfit and hat is to him. He will spend his last dime to look a certain way. I like that about a person.
