Color frontispiece from painting by Charles M. Russell captioned by a facsimile of a letter written by the Western artist to the author, endpapers illustrated by Joe De Yong, black-and-white photographic and illustrated plates by Mrs. Nell B. Magelssen, H.C. Stuart, and R.H. Hall. An account of life in the American West by the man who called himself 'the oldest cowboy in Montana.' This account has since drawn criticism for historical inaccuracy, especially in comparison to works published by Charles M. Russell, though "none of the people who knew better stepped into the public arena to call [Tucker] a liar." (Raphael Cristy, Montana The Magazine of Western History Vol. 38, No. 3 (Summer, 1988))
