J. Frank Dobie (1888–1964) was for many years secretary-editor of the Texas Folklore Society, taught at universities in Texas and Oklahoma as well as in England, Germany, and Austria, and wrote seventeen books on Texas and south-western life, including The Voice of the Coyote, available in a Bison Books edition.
"Mr. Dobie brings together all his findings in a single book of
solid scholarship, documented to the hilt, and inspired by his
unflagging enthusiasm for the wild free creatures of the West. The
Mustangs will probably remain the standard work on the
subject."--New York Times
"This is a magnificent book, so packed with lore and legend that
one is not conscious of the fact that it is history, too. Frank
Dobie tells the story of the mustangs . . . The story too of the
men, and the way of life the mustang brought into being."--New York
Herald Tribune
