Western Stars and Scars is a really fun, enlightened, beautifully illustrated compilation of Cowboy Poetry that will entertain you by making you laugh a lot, cry a lot, fall in love if you're lucky, and think a little if you are unlucky. It's a great read when you are feeling a little down, or looking for words to inspire a lady friend. Reports are it's a value driven read for the kids at nap time or before bed. Some even read a piece at the dinner table before dinner, to inspire meaningful table conversation, and the rumor is, its occasionally found in high class outhouses. It is a great Thought for The Day Provider, and makes a dandy friend on an airplane. This book is like a chocolate chip cookie; nobody needs one, but everybody loves them.
