Publisher Notes
"Wallis is the first writer to tie together the 101 Ranch's many stories." -- The New York Times Book Review
"It's hard to imagine a better fit between subject and author than Michael Wallis and the 101 Ranch. Michael Wallis's deep knowledge of Oklahoma - both its history and character - enables him to tell the story of this legendary group of entrepreneurs and ranch hands with vividness and verve. The book is a very good read." - Larry McMurtry, author of Lonesome Dove
"For decades the story of the 101 Ranch and the Miller family has delighted young and old alike. I was privileged to know quite a few of the 101 gang such as Tom Mix, Ken Maynard, Buck Jones, Will Rogers, and Yakima Canutt. The stories they could tell left you breathless and wanting more. Michael Wallis's book will serve as an outstanding and entertaining guide to an institution that has played a significant role in the history of our great country." - Gene Autry
"There are no better stories than that of the Miller brothers and the 101 Ranch. There is no other writer who could have re-created the fun and games and drama of this extraordinary saga better than Michael Wallis. Every character and episode spring and hump and vibrate from page to page, happening to happening. To borrow a relative term - this book is a hoot!" - Jim Lehrer
