TWO NEW BOOKS



Best of the Old West



By
Tamara Hillman

If you are longing for those heroes of the Old West who could lasso a stallion, bulldog a hefter, ride herd night an' day, tell the biggest lies 'round a campfire, charm the ladies, an' who you would trust with your very life, well, this is the book for you!

In this new cowboy poetry book, I have written on several subjects in Cowboy poetry form. Included in these pages are also a few Country poems, Political cowboy poems, and even some of my favorite Christmas poems.

There's fun and hardship, truth and tall tales on  all 230 pages.

"Best of the Old West"

It took ten years to gather enough poetry I'd written outside my usual genre' of cowboy poetry to complete this book which I am proud to introduce....But don't think it's a book of meaningless words that constitute some weird, free verse poetry.
Remember, I am country from the top of my frazzled, curly head to the bottom of my usually bare feet!

These poems tell a story much like my cowboy poems do.

You will relate to my own true-life experiences, and also many imaginary characters and tales on these 133 pages.

Pure
Country

By
Tamara Hillman


This book is just what the title implies, PURE COUNTRY, reminiscent poetry, and prose.

It is a bit gentler in rhyme than cowboy poetry in so much as it lacks the lingo, but keeps its country charm from first page till last.

To those raised in the country, this book will take you down memory lane, and to those raised elsewhere, it will give you a true feel for country life…

Dusty Trails

By
Tamara Hillman


This book is a true rendition of the hardscrabble life of cowboys. The lingo and tales are a view from the saddle that describe cowboys and their work each and every day.

Weather, snakes, stampedes, and rodeos will all capture your interest and the heart of these courageous men.

If you are a real cowboy or cowgirl, this is the book for you, and for those who know a real cowboy or girl, it makes a wonderful gift…

Heroes & Villains
of the Old West




by
Tamara Hillman

This book is made up of true life biographies in poetry form of American heroes we've all been familiar with since our childhoods among both cowboys and Indians who helped settle the western frontier.

There also is an "Unsung Heroes" section in the back of the book telling true stories of people who became unplanned heroes into the early twentieth century...

(Great read for ages 8 to 98.)
170 pages

About the Author

Tamara Hillman was born and raised in a small eastern Washington town, and though she moved to a more urban area in her late twenties, her fondest memories remain of living in the country, and of the hardworking, generous people in rural areas.

She has written many articles for Country, Reminisce, NW. Retirement, and Working Horse magazines, and often recites her poetry on Country/Cowboy radio stations.

A number of her poems have been published on cowboy websites, and in special edition papers.

Her goal is to continue writing western books and Country/Cowboy poetry…


Tales

of
BS Scruggs

by
Tamara Hillman

This book is a contemporary western novel fulla gut bustin' fun ridin' along with Bull Scruggs in his ol' jalopy he calls, Betsy.

One Sunday mornin', Bull happens on Paul Cooper (a Hollywood mogul) after he gets in an accident that leaves him stranded in a dusty little town named Cobalt, Texas. 

The old cowboy commences to teach the young whipper-snapper the ways of the West in less than three short weeks.

 (Some mild expletives)
