MY COWBOY HAT STILL FITS
by Abe Morris
If you’ve ever watched a bull rider desperately hang on till the buzzer sounds and shaken your head in amazement as a cowboy picks himself off the ground after being tossed around like a rag doll, this book will tell you why they do it. In his own words, Champion Bull Rider Abe Morris recounts his story from his boyhood in New Jersey at the Cowtown Rodeo through the University of Wyoming and the triumphs and disappointments of competing around the country as one of the very few black rodeo cowboys. This is a story of good friends, tragic losses, prejudicial judges, career-threatening injuries and the ever present recalcitrant bulls.
