CowboyLands

CowboyLands is a site that searches for the mythic West in everything, and usually finds it. Why? Because the Cult of the Cowboy permeates every aspect of human culture, from pop to politics, from global relations to the global lexicon. 

Ride with me and my own small but trustworthily blogging Hole-in-the-Wall gang because love it or hate it, the world’s got Cowboy. It’s our duty to highlight the uses of the mythic West, as well as its abuses. 

• Feeling powerless? See what Gary Cooper–or any other “real” cowboy–would do in your situation.

• Feeling parched for western culture? Check out the best and worst of western movies, music, and books, courtesy of yours truly and any other buckeroo who sends something in. Also click on books, or movies. 

• Thirsting for something spicy (or dusty)? Hop into the latest Western fetish, collection, and obsession. 

Saddle up and surf, surf, surf to the farthest reaches of the Wild Web world to find the best that life has to offer, from first-edition pulps to spaghetti westerns in cineplexes, from celluloid stoics to political spin, from rodeos in the US of A to dude ranches in Europe—anywhere the cult of cowboy reigns.

Thanks for stopping by, and happy virtual trails,
