The lost world of a Latino cowboy who found fame
Tagged: rodeoPosted on: June 18th, 2007“Ricardo Palacios’ loving tribute to his calf-roping uncle digs deep into the tough ranching life of South Texas in the early 20th century.
But watch where you tread when you go excavating in such desolate Texas confines as Encinal, Cotulla and Laredo, the setting for Tio Cowboy: Juan Salinas, Rodeo Roper & Horseman.
You may learn some things best left buried, such as the old tales of how goat herders once castrated baby goats. Not for the squeamish.”
