Description
From droving to driving, heilan coos to longhorns: cattle droving in Scotland was an established profession from the 16th century, and many Scots emigrants took cowboy jobs in the American West. Music, song, dance and folklore informed their social and personal lives, and as this popular culture crossed and re-crossed the Atlantic it created strong links between the old country and the new. This unique exploration of the cowboy culture sheds new light on the everyday life of the cattle communities.
