As a cowboy poet, N. Howard Thorp - better known as Jack Thorp to his many friends in the Southwest -is the genuine thing. He is an old time cattleman and cowpuncher, and his songs are the fruit of experience. His gift is instinctive and naive, like that of all real cowboy poets, and its charm is precisely in its fresh and unliterary quality.
