In the foreword to The Land Where the Cowboy Grows, A. V. Hudson, the author, writes about the inspiration for some of her poems:
"Billy" has long been a visitor of mine who did considerable "pestering 'round" in the spring of the year. There would be stretches of time when the "Circle A.H. Ranch" wasn't bothered with him, then some morning he would arrive—horse, dog and entire paraphernalia.
When he was gone, I would pick up the bits of verse he had left lying about. At last these became so numerous it was decided to put a few of them into book form, and for that reason the following "round-up" was made....
A woman of her time, several of her poems allude to the suffragette movement, including the title poem. (A. V. Hudson's husband was also a state senator.)
This is a high-definition scan of the original, 1915 book. No changes have been made to either the text of the illustrations, and least one of which is in color.
