A Cowman's Wife is a memoir written by Mary Kidder Rak. The book tells the story of Mary's life as the wife of a cowman, a cowboy who works on a ranch. Mary and her husband, Bill, lived on several different ranches throughout their marriage, and Mary recounts the challenges and joys of life on the ranch.Throughout the book, Mary shares stories of the hard work and long hours required to run a ranch, as well as the beauty of the natural world around her. She also discusses the relationships she formed with the other cowboys and their families, and the sense of community that developed on the ranches.Mary's memoir is a tribute to the rugged and independent spirit of the American West. It provides a glimpse into a way of life that is disappearing, as modern technology and urbanization change the landscape of rural America.
