Abstract:
Before Owen Wister's publication of "The Virginian" in 1902, the image of the cowboy was essentially that of the dime novel. This book details the evidence that Everett Johnson, a cowboy from Virginia who had been a friend of Wister's in Wyoming in the 1880s, was the initial and prime inspiration for Wister's cowboy. 2015.
