Product Description
The Vaquero Documentary Series follows the trail of the Vaqueros from Spain to Mexico to Santa Fe, Texas and California, to the far corners of America as the cowboy tradition evolved. It takes you behind the scenes to some of the country’s most historic ranches, featuring real working cowboys and their families. These feature-length documentaries provide a vivid picture of the working Cowboys, Buckaroos, Californios, Vaqueros, Paniolos, Punchers and even the French Vachers of Louisiana who spend their lives horseback, working cattle. Beautifully underscored with the music of Ian Tyson, Dave Stamey, Don Edwards, Juni Fisher, Cajun and Zydeco Cowboy singers who have spent many hours in the saddle. Altogether, these films paint a penetrating portrait of cowboy life from its European roots to present day.
The latest installment is Vaquero Series #14:
The Northern Horses – The Spaniards brought horses to Santa Fe in 1610. By 1730 Plains Indians ac- quired these horses. It changed their culture and was the birth of a spiritual bond between man and horse that still survives today.
