Some More Horse Tradin'

This excerpt is from "Some More Horse Tradin'" by Ben K. Green. In this book, Green tells the stories of a group of old-time horse traders. These traders deal in horses, mules, and other animals. Some of the stories in this book are about horse trading, while others are about other things. One story is about a trader who tries to get even with another trader. Another story is about a trader who tries to teach a mule how to trade.

From the same corral that produced the widely loved Horse Tradin, Ben K. Green has rounded up fifteen new yarns filled with the ornery yet irresistible style that has earned his books a place in classic Western Americana. Some MoreHorse Tradin recounts the dealings of a whole slew of craggy old-timers and rangy characters. See them match wits as they trade well-bred mares, snorty-like range colts, and used-to-be-bad horses from the tumbleweed plains. Admire the old-time knavery, skill, and salesmanship in such tales as Gittin Even, Brethren Horse Traders, Mule Schoolin, and Water Treatment and the Sore-Tailed Bronc. Ride along with Green, and hell tell you what he knows about horseflesh--but keep your wits about you, and hang on to your wallet.
