SUPERSTITION COWBOYS by Jack San Felice

 
Arizona author and historian, Jack San Felice, has collected into one copiously illustrated volume the stories of many early cowboys and ranchers of our local harsh high desert environment. In Superstition Cowboys you'll read about the hardy women who raised their children and provided comfort to their men while living in rough-hewn cabins under primitive conditions.

You'll read about many of the early cowboys and vaqueros who came to southern Arizona with their longhorns and wild Mexican cattle. The rough and tough cowboys of the Superstition Mountains came to the Arizona Territory from all parts of America and all walks of life. Some were successful and fulfilled their dream, while others did not.

 Local folks will recognize and fondly recall many family names of the ranchers and cowboys Jack has included in Superstition Cowboys: Horrell, Bohme, Martin, Armer, Bacon, Miles, and Henderson, to name just a few. Each of these family stories is accompanied by fabulous photos and illustrations of the cattle brands used by the various ranches.

For over fifteen years, Jack San Felice has written and lectured about the history of the Superstition Mountains and surrounding areas. He is an adjunct professor at Scottsdale Community College and holds B.S. and M.S. degrees from American University in Washington, D.C. Jack lives in Mesa, Arizona with his wife Wynne and nearby adult children and grandchildren.
