Step away from Hollywood myths and into the authentic world of Northern Plains cowboys with I See By Your Outfit. Authors Tom Lindmier and Steve Mount present a fact-based exploration of cowboy gear from 1870 to 1928, backed by over 120 vintage photographs and illustrations that document real working cowboys—not the movie versions.
This richly detailed softcover book examines every element of cowboy attire, from chaps, spurs, and boots to undergarments and outerwear. It also includes in-depth sections on saddles, tack, wagons, and other tools of the trade—providing readers with an honest and well-researched depiction of the cowboy lifestyle on the Northern Plains.
Ideal for historians, collectors, reenactors, and anyone with a passion for cowboy culture or Old West realism.
