This is a book for those people who firstly, love Charlie M. Russell, the cowboy artist. He wrote like an old wrangler, and liked to "tell stories" like tall tales, etc. He was a wonderful character, and a great painter, sculptor, and genuine Montana lover. This is something not of the ordinary, but for those who have a quirky personality!! Yes, I would recommend this book to other readers.
