HARD TWIST: Western Ranch Women Photographs Coffee Table Book
by Barbara Van Cleve
Softcover, 162 pages, illustrated profusely throughout.
The western expression "Hard Twist" refers to the oldtime Manila-hemp, tightly twisted lariat rope-hard twisted. The term also refers to a small, compact, physically strong person with resilience, rather like rawhide, which expands and stretches when wet or shrinks and tightens up when dry but almost never breaks. Just like the ranch women in this book!
An important book for Western art collectors.
