Whether working in leather, steel, silver, horsehair or rawhide, these artisans share a passion for their craft, a reverence for the traditions they perpetuate & total commitment to the western way of life. Their gear -- innovative within the bounds of tradition & expertly crafted -- rivals or beats that of the old masters. Includes a source guide. Beautiful color photos.
