Trail Fever: The Life of a Texas Cowboy

George Saunders could ride a horse before he could walk, rode his first cattle drive at the age of five, and got caught in his first stampede when he was ten. A Texas trail driver, he survived it all--freezing rains, lightning storms, desert dust, Kiowa and Comanche raiders, outlaw bandits, days and nights of herding without rest. He was a real American hero--a cowboy. D.J. Lightfoot has pored through Saunders's papers and interviewed his grandchildren to bring you the story of one of Texas's best-known cowmen.
