What every rodeo fan has been waiting for -- the ONLY authorized biography of Casey Tibbs, rodeo superstar and six-time world champion saddle bronc rider.
Casey Tibbs is once again larger than life in Rusty Richards' biography of the memorable, charismatic cowboy from South Dakota. Born in a log home in the wilds of South Dakota, the youngest of ten children, Tibbs grew to be the most well-known, popular rodeo star of all time.
Richards' biography is all-inclusive and covers the Roberts family, including rodeo greats Ken, Gerald, and E.C., along with Jim Shoulders, Deb Copenhaver, Carol Olson, Ben Johnson, Gene Pruett, Bill Linderman, and so many more talented rodeo stars. In addition, the author recounts Casey's phenomenal success in Hollywood, Tibbs' Las Vegas associations, and his world tours promoting rodeo and the Wild West. Richards does not gloss over Casey's battles with alcohol and gambling addictions, either.
This is a biography that inspires, amuses, saddens, and gives real meaning to determination and grit. Casey Tibbs deserves to have his story told, and Rusty Richards has done an excellent job of doing so.
This book is available in trade paperback ($19.95) and a limited hardbound edition ($24.95).
