Rhymes of the Rockies
'Rhymes of the Rockies' Summary
James W. Whilt, known for his work as a dude wrangler in Glacier National Park and his life as a rancher near Eureka, Montana, compiled his heartfelt poems about the Rockies in 'Rhymes of the Rockies'. These poems, often shared with tourists, weave tales of the majestic landscape, the encounters with wildlife, and the rustic life of a rancher in the West. Whilt captures the essence of the mountains in his verses, painting vivid pictures of breathtaking scenery, the challenges of ranch life, and the quiet beauty of the natural world. His poems resonate with the spirit of the West, highlighting the rugged yet tender aspects of life in the heart of the Rockies. The collection offers a glimpse into Whilt's perspective, a love for the mountains and a deep understanding of its people and its ways.Book Details
