HOIG, STAN; EGGENHOFER, NICK (ILLUSTRATIONS). The Humor Of The American Cowboy.
University of Nebraska Press, Lincoln and London: 2006. 0803273592 / 9780803273597 New Edition with a new Introduction by the author. s Softcover. Brand new book.
To the cowboy, for whom the world was a circus of creation, nothing was beyond the scope of laughter. His fertile imagination could produce trail drives of dry-land terrapins, cowboy firing squads for fighting game roosters, and a breed of "honk-honk birds" that could outrun a horse. He used humor to express his fondness for the West, to exchange sarcasms with railroaders, to teach lessons to tenderfeet, and even Ñ sometimes Ñ to laugh at death. In The Humor of the American Cowboy, Stan Hoig presents an authentic collection of tall tales, anecdotes, yarns, jokes, and humorous incidents of the Old West that not only entertain but also focus attention on a sometimes overlooked phase of cowboy life. Stan Hoig is professor emeritus of journalism at the University of Central Oklahoma. His other books include The Sand Creek Massacre, Perilous Pursuit: The U. S. Cavalry and the Northern Cheyennes, and The Battle of the Washita: The Sheridan-Custer Indian Campaign of 1867-69, available in a Bison Books edition. "The whole gives many a chuckle, as wry and dry as the land whence they came. . . . The drawings by Eggenhofer are among the best he has ever done." ÑSan Francisco Chronicle "A duke's mixture of mirth, irony and downright horseplay, made vivid by the brushpopper's salty imagery and remarkable aptitude for precisely the wrong word in the right place."ÑNew York Times Book Review

HOIG, STAN. The Sand Creek Massacre.
University of Oklahoma Press, Norman: 1977. s Softcover. Brand new book.
Sometimes called "The Chivington Massacre" by those who would emphasize his responsibility for the attack and "The Battle of Sand Creek" by those who would imply that it was not a massacre, this event has become one of our nation's most controversial Indian conflicts. The subject of army and Congressional investigations and inquiries, a matter of vigorous newspaper debates, the object of much oratory and writing biased in both directions, the Sand Creek Massacre very likely will never be completely and satisfactorily resolved. This account of the massacre investigates the historical events leading to the battle, tracing the growth of the Indian-white conflict in Colorado Territory. The author has shown the way in which the discontent stemming from the treaty of Fort Wise, the depredations committed by the Cheyennes and Arapahoes prior to the massacre, and the desire of some of the commanding officers for a bloody victory against the Indians laid the groundwork for the battle at Sand Creek. Stan Hoig is Professor Emeritus of Journalism at the University of Central Oklahoma, Edmond. His many books on the West and American Indians include The Sand Creek Massacre, The Peace Chiefs of the Cheyennes, and Tribal Wars of the Southern Plains. "Mr. Hoig has written the standard work upon one of the most haunting episodes in our past . . . setting forth all that is essential and verifiable in the story." - Montana the Magazine of Western History "This is an excellent book, well worth owning." - The American Book Collector " . . . an interesting account of one of the most controversial of all Indian conflicts." - The Amerindian
