Great stories told by the cow-punchers themselves... some true, some tall, but all fascinating. In December 1889 a group of ranch-hands and a country doctor are marooned for a long, cold night in a cabin. To pass the time, they each decide to tell a yarn. An encounter with Wild Bill Hickok, an Indian who catches rattlesnakes for a living, a gun-runner called Hookey Cross... not to mention the prospector who accidentally blew up a mountain. A quirky and often touching set of recollections with more than a few shocks and surprises!
