Andy Adams (May 3, 1859 – September 26, 1935) was an American writer of western fiction. Andy Adams was born in Indiana. His parents were Andrew and Elizabeth (Elliott) Adams. As a boy he helped with the cattle and horses on the family farm. During the early 1880s he went to Texas, where he stayed for 10 years, spending much of that time driving cattle on the western trails. In 1890 he tried working as a businessman, but the venture failed, so he tried gold-mining in Colorado and Nevada. In 1894, he settled in Colorado Springs, where he lived until his death. He began writing at the age of 43, publishing his most successful book, The Log of a Cowboy, in 1903. His other works include A Texas Matchmaker (1904), The Outlet (1905), Cattle Brands (1906), Reed Anthony, Cowman: An Autobiography (1907), Wells Brothers (1911), and The Ranch on the Beaver (1927). The Log of a Cowboy is an account of a five-month drive of 3,000 cattle from Brownsville, Texas, to Montana during 1882 along the Great Western Cattle Trail. Although the book is fiction, it is based on Adams\'s own experiences, and it is considered by many to be literature\'s best account of cowboy life. Adams was disgusted by the unrealistic cowboy fiction being published in his time; The Log of a Cowboy was his response. It is still in print, and even modern reviewers consider it compelling. The Chicago Herald said: "As a narrative of cowboy life, Andy Adams\' book is clearly the real thing. It carries its own certificate of authentic first-hand experience on every page." Views: 619
Bonjour. Je m’appelle Florence Roberge et j’ai huit ans. J’ai commencé un journal in-time. Je trouve que c’est une bonne idée parce que je peux parler de mes amies Emma, Charlie et Ling. Il y a Félix aussi qui vient jouer avec nous même si c’est un gars. Et je peux aussi parler de mes parents. Il y a papa qui travaille dans son dépanneur. Il me montre comment marche la caisse et il me fait rire. Il y a maman qui me donne souvent plein de becs et avec qui je regarde plein de films d’horreur même si papa n’aime pas ça. Des fois, papa et maman se chicanent fort parce qu’ils parlent de moi. Papa dit que je suis bizarre et qu’on aurait dû écouter le docteur que j’ai vu l’année passée. Maman n’est pas d’accord, elle dit que je ne suis pas bizarre et elle traite papa de panaro, ou un mot comme ça. C’est là qu’ils se chicanent. Moi, je ne comprends rien de ce qu’ils di-sent. Mononcle Hubert m’a dit que personne n’a le droit de lire le journal intime des autres. Ça, c’est le fun, parce que je vais pouvoir tout écrire, même les affaires que je me ferais chicaner si on savait que je les avais faites. Comme ce qui est arrivé quand je suis allée voir le rat mort dans la poubelle…. Views: 619
