A working cowboy who is highly admired my everyone he's ridden with will remember
some of the highlights of his long career in the saddle. Terry Milliken rode for some
of the biggest outfits in the west and you'll enjoy his colourful memories. How a
few missing blocks in a horse's foundation can affect this performance in later life
is the subject of the horse training file. There's some of the newest and best of the
western music world and great cowboy poetry to wrap it up.
