Technically, a cowboy worked with cattle, as a ranch hand, while his boss, the cattleman, owned the ranch. Jacqueline M. Moore casts aside romantic and one-dimensional images of cowboys by analyzing the class, gender, and labor histories of ranching in Texas during the second half of the nineteenth century." "As working-classmen, cowboys showed their masculinity through their skills at work as well as public displays in town. But what cowboys thought was manly behavior did not always match those ideas of the business-minded cattlemen who largely absorbed middle-class masculine ideals of restraint. Real men, by these standards, had self-mastery over their impulses and didn't fight, drink, gamble, or consort with "unsavory" women, Moore explores how, in contrast to the mythic image, from the late 1870s on, as the Texas frontier became more settled and the open range disappeared, the real cowboys faced increasing demands from the people around them to rein in the very traits that Americans considered the most masculine."--BOOK JACKET. 000352840 650_0 $$aCowboys$$zTexas$$xHistory$$y19th century. 000352840 650_0 $$aRanchers$$zTexas$$xHistory$$y19th century. 000352840 650_0 $$aMasculinity$$zTexas$$xHistory$$y19th century. 000352840 650_0 $$aSex role$$zTexas$$xHistory$$y19th century. 000352840 650_0 $$aRanch life$$zTexas$$xHistory$$y19th century. 000352840 650_0 $$aFrontier and pioneer life$$zTexas. 000352840 650_0 $$aCattle trade$$xSocial aspects$$zTexas$$xHistory$$y19th century. 000352840 650_0 $$aSocial classes$$zTexas$$xHistory$$y19th century. 000352840 651_0 $$aTexas$$xSocial life and customs$$y19th century. 000352840 651_0 $$aTexas$$xSocial conditions$$y19th century. 000352840 7102_ $$aWilliam P.
