Welcome to Western and Cowboy Poetry by Clark Crouch which features poetry inspired by an acquaintance with Badger Clark, Poet Laureate of South Dakota, family folklore dating back through the 1880's, and personal experiences in the ranch lands of the Western Nebraska Sandhills in the 1930's and 1940's. Life on the prairie was rugged and the ranchers, cowboys, cow punchers, and pioneers often lived in a dugout or sod house (soddy) with no amenities except a nearby stream or a shallow well and an outhouse. The site contains western, cowboy, and pioneer poetry and ballads and includes cowboy memories, folklife and folklore information, pioneer history, ranch life, and rodeo experiences.
