El Vaquero is a wonderful way to learn about the early California vaquero. It includes many detailed descriptions, drawings and paintings of vaqueros and buckaroos in many kinds of cowboy action, such as colt breaking, bronc riding, team roping, calf tailing, sliding stops, and complicated roping maneuvers and loops. Other illustrations include vaquero style horse gear (hackamores, bosals, saddles, martingales, tapaderos, headstalls, reins and romals, bits, spurs, riatas, hobbles, mecates, etc.) and headgear used and the progressive handling of bridle reins in training a horse from the hackamore to spade bit. El Vaquero is of interest to historians, artists, cowboys, horsemen, craftsmen, and anyone who enjoys the tradition of the early California vaquero horsemanship style. Ernie always said, “My aim is to make an attempt to preserve some history of the old-time vaquero.” This is new and still in the wrapper. Buyer pays shipping.
