Barnes spent months on the road with tight-knit communities of riders, stock contractors and rodeo families who carry the rodeo's legacy forward.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eRiding the Silver Dream\u003c\/i\u003e documents traditional ranching and cowboy communities for whom rodeo remains a living heritage alongside communities that have long shaped rodeo culture but are often overlooked in the mythology of the American West. His work highlights the role of Black cowboys, Native American riders, women who have long competed and helped shape rodeo and the working cowboys who practice its oldest traditions. Shot entirely on film, Barnes' portraits reveal riders as they truly are, with battered boots and focused faces, capturing the moment of calm before the chute gate swings open.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Reel Art Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/27\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781915427021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176","brand":"Hunter Barnes","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53195264426165,"sku":"9781915427021","price":42.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/9781915427021.jpg?v=1788273592","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/hunter-barnes-riding-the-silver-dream-9781915427021","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
