Braiding strands of earthen insight with uproarious storytelling, Texas Hill Country legendary author Becky Patterson recreates the history of the Steiler Hill Ranch in twentyfour anecdotal chapters interspersed with original artwork. The result is a mixture of memoir and montage, treasure chest and tableau vivant of a world thats beautiful, brash, and wonderfully heartbreaking. Patterson the daughter of Texas folk hero and selfproclaimed mayor of Luckenbach, Hondo Crouch has big shoes to fill and she does so successfully in this colorful collection of Hill Country and Texas ranch vignettes.Foreman and general cowboy guru Raymond Kuhlmann tells stories of the Goat King and German drinking songs, the buzzard traps and Mexican corridos that filled the nighttime pastures. Firstperson accounts and vivid historical narratives evoke the ranchs past, overlaid with Pattersons breathless personal histories of afternoons spent rescuing a doe in a nightgown, or saving a porcupine from a pack of dogs.This is a book that will connect you to whatever patch of earth you hold dear. It is poignant reminder of the landscapes weve forgotten to keep close, of the land that does not belong to us but simply is who we are. The Ranch That Was Us is an affectionate reminder to go outside and touch the earth that is you.
