"John Avery Lomax grew up singing. Why, he probably knew more folksongs, tunes, and ballads than there were cattle in the great state of Texas." As a child, John loved the songs he heard the cowboys singing along the nearby Chisholm Trail. He began writing them down at an early age. As John grew older, he traveled the country collecting and recording cowboy songs, helping to preserve such favorites as "Sweet Betsy from Pike" and "Home on the Range." Author's note. Source note. Bibliography. Full-color illustrations.
