Dr. James Hoy has announced that his book, The Winning of the Wild, will be published this fall by Texas Tech University Press.
It covers the life of F. H. Maynard, who wrote "Tom Sherman's Bar Room" ("Cowboy's Lament") in the 1870s, and includes his poems.
It will be an important addition to the knowledge of this period in western history.
