| 3. |  | Fried Twinkies, Buckle Bunnies, & Bull Riders: A Year Inside the Professional Bull Riders Tour from Rodale Books Price: $16.15 Customer Review: The one thing wrong with this book is the title. It's strictly about pro bull riders and the multimillion-dollar business that has raised bullriding from a feature rodeo event to a cross between NASCAR and the WWF. You'll learn little about fried Twinkies, buckle bunnies, and whatever they're... |

| 6. |  | Chasing the Rodeo: On Wild Rides and Big Dreams, Broken Hearts and Broken Bones, and One Man's Search for the West from Harvest Books Price: $11.20 Customer Review: While rodeo insiders may find fault with this book and quibble over details, it remains an excellent introduction to the history, the personalities, and the meaning of this sport as it's evolved over the past century. Stratton, a journalist based in Austin, TX, with roots in Oklahoma, comes by his... |

| 7. |  | Buffalo Bill's Wild West: Celebrity, Memory, and Popular History from Hill and Wang Price: $24.30 Customer Review:  I was stunned by how a subject such as the Wild West shows could be presented in such a tiresome manner. The author makes the same two or three points over and over again (the meat of her book) and spends the rest of the book detailing lithographs and program covers -- copies of which appear in the... |

| 11. |  | Rodeo in America: Wranglers, Roughstock, & Paydirt from University Press of Kansas Price: $15.25 Customer Review: I just recently dicovered this book and boy was I surprised. Personally, I found this book very helpful for the fact that I am a bullrider myself and found the information within it's pages very useful and insightful. It explains the origins of rodeo to the very way to play the game! With in-depth... |

| 13. |  | Calf Roping: The World Champion's Guide For Winning Runs from Western Horseman Price: $11.66 Customer Review: Iloved that somebody wrote a book about calf roping and the person that did is one of my rodeo heros. It's a wonderful book to learn about calf roping and could not have been written by a better person. |

| 14. |  | Rodeo Queens: On The Circuit With America's Cowgirls from PublicAffairs Price: $14.00 Customer Review:  The mistake I made here was judging the book by the cover. I picked it up because I thought the topic was interesting, and I thought it would detail the lives and personalities of the kind of sassy, salty, almost defiant cowgirls like the ones depicted on the cover. I knew next to nothing about the... |

| 15. |  | Cowgirls of the Rodeo: PIONEER PROFESSIONAL ATHLETES (Sport and Society) from University of Illinois Press Price: $27.00 Customer Review: If you are at all interested in the lives of rodeo women and the history behind the Women's Professional Rodeo Association, this is a great book. I enjoyed it very much and have used it as a resource when writing articles for western related articles. |

| 16. |  | Biting the Dust: The Wild Ride and Dark Romance of the Rodeo Cowboy and the American West from Bison Books Price: $14.95 Customer Review: For the record, I should confess that I am currently in a course taught by Dirk Johnson at Northern Illinois University. My review, however, will not affect my grade (probably.) This is a lovely little book, true in both its telling and in its honest portrayal of rodeo cowboys. You will not want to... |

| 19. |  | Ring of Fire : The Guts and Glory of the Professional Bull Riding Tour from Triumph Books Price: $21.24 Customer Review: I enjoyed reading Ring of Fire. Having been in and followed Rodeo for a great many years, Ring of Fire, is a look into the World of the Bull Rider, before it became a slick, Madison Avenue packaged production. At that time, the Rodeo roots were still alive and well and Hollywood had not yet taken... |
