Kansas Cattletowns - While we have this listed under music it is actually a set of stories told around a campfire setting. Great to listen to while traveling your favorite trails in your modern horseless carriage. The Kansas cattletown was, at once, a blessing and a curse. On its dusty streets, within the sparkle of a heartbeat, a Cowboy could find his fortune or just as quickly fall to ruin. The prairie welcomed many to an eternal rest beneath the sod.

Just what was a Kansas cattletown and why did young Cowboys venture so far from home to make history on the wind-swept plains? The Cowboy, Jim Gray, has walked the streets and the forgotten trails of an era that will never die. These are the true stories that can only be heard Around the Campfire with The Cowboy.
