- Synopsis
- This is a story about a kid who was crazy to ride and a horse no one could ride. A fictional story based on the true life of Midnight, the most famous bucking bronco of all time, this fast-moving novel takes the reader from the little stock ranch in western Canada where Midnight was foaled, to the World's Championship Rodeo in Madison Square Garden. The whole marvelous world of rodeo horses and rodeo riders unfolds as we read how Sandy Macpherson, young owner of Midnight, loses the horse to big-time rodeo after entering him in the Calgary Stampede, where the big black horse threw every cowboy who tried to ride him. Sandy, bereft without his beloved horse, left the ranch and set out to become a championship rodeo bronc buster himself. Told in a folksy style, this story will appeal to every lover of horses, young and old. Fans of western Americana will be interested in the glossary of rodeo and cowboy terms.
