United States Editorial Review
**** "Dakota Cowboy: My Life in the Old Days" provides readers with an authentic glimpse into cowboy life at the turn of the century across the Dakotas and Canada. The narratives are rich with well-told stories that encapsulate both the trials and joys of life on the range. Blasingame’s Prose is direct and interspersed with delightful dry humor, making it a joy to read; many readers have found themselves wishing to spend more time alongside the charismatic figure of "Wild Ike," a key character in the tales. The book successfully avoids modern portrayals of cowboy life, steering clear of any mention of contemporary vehicles or technology, and instead immerses readers in a world of cattle, horses, and authentic cowboy culture. The inclusion of numerous horse profiles adds depth and interest, appealing to both equestrian enthusiasts and history buffs alike. One standout feature mentioned by readers is a fold-out map at the end, which enhances the reading experience by providing geographical context. Customers have expressed high regard for Blasingame's storytelling ability, noting its ability to provoke nostalgia and reflection for those with personal ties to ranching or the Old West. His respect for the traditions of the cowboy lifestyle and the integrity with which he lived is palpable throughout the pages. The book has won accolades for its insightful portrayal of an era that many readers were unaware of, making it not just entertaining but educational as well. Overall, “Dakota Cowboy” strikes a chord with those who have a passion for Western tales, ensuring it is a recommended read for enthusiasts of the genre. Its combination of heart, humor, and historical context makes it a significant contribution to the literature of American history. **
