Following the success of her acclaimed nonfiction collection Horse Tales: True Stories from an Idaho Ranch, author Heather Smith Thomas has assembled Cow Tales: More True Stories from an Idaho Ranch, an entertaining and compelling lineup of autobiographical essays detailing her family's adventures raising cattle in the challenging ranch country outside Salmon, Idaho. In the tradition of James Herriot (All Creatures Great and Small), each story centers on a particular animal or aspect of animal husbandry, offering insight into the resourcefulness required to manage a cattle herd and a heartwarming look at human-animal bonding. "I am grateful to ... the many unique 'cow characters' I've been privileged to know," Thomas writes. "This book is a gathering of memories about some of those special characters ... a collection of stories and recollections about a few of the many 'cow critters' who taught me and my family about cattle care, cattle nature, and ourselves as humans."
