A LONG AND WINDING TRAIL TO PARADISE: After too many bloody battles, Civil War veteran Roy Stearns rode west searching for a new life in ranching or farming, or trying to seek his fortune in the goldfields. Enroute, he takes a temporary job with the Roswell marshal in capturing and killing murderous, raping desperadoes on the border of Old Mexico. He finds several romances along the western trail, and especially in Los Angeles, California where he frees up Chinese sex slave, Han Bo. Roy is as tough as nails, and has to fight off determined members of the Chinese Tong, who are trying to return her to the slave dungeon. After eliminating the killers, Roy finds her a safe home with big-hearted Madam Jillian. On an evening sojourn, he is shanghaied in San Francisco and hauled off on a torturous voyage to China with a crazed, cruel captain. On the return voyage, he and several friends jump ship and end up working on the Parker Ranch on the big island of Hawaii as novice paniolos, Hawaiian cowboys. When things heat up along the trails, fearless Roy is the man that puts out the fire. The adventure is as big as the Pacific Ocean with tons of exciting characters, beautiful maidens, island music and flowers, and bucking broncos.

The triumphant true story of the native Hawaiian cowboys who crossed the Pacific to shock America at the 1908 world rodeo championships Oregon Book Award winner * An NPR Best Book of the Year * Pacific Northwest Book Award finalist * A Reading the West Book Awards finalist "Groundbreaking. … A must-read. ... An essential addition." —True West In August 1908, three unknown riders arrived in Cheyenne, Wyoming, their hats adorned with wildflowers, to compete in the world’s greatest rodeo. Steer-roping virtuoso Ikua Purdy and his cousins Jack Low and Archie Ka’au’a had travelled 4,200 miles from Hawaii, of all places, to test themselves against the toughest riders in the West. Dismissed by whites, who considered themselves the only true cowboys, the native Hawaiians would astonish the country, returning home champions—and American legends. An unforgettable human drama set against the rough-knuckled frontier, David Wolman and Julian Smith’s Aloha Rodeo unspools the fascinating and little-known true story of the Hawaiian cowboys, or paniolo, whose 1908 adventure upended the conventional history of the American West. What few understood when the three paniolo rode into Cheyenne is that the Hawaiians were no underdogs. They were the product of a deeply engrained cattle culture that was twice as old as that of the Great Plains, for Hawaiians had been chasing cattle over the islands’ rugged volcanic slopes and through thick tropical forests since the late 1700s. Tracing the life story of Purdy and his cousins, Wolman and Smith delve into the dual histories of ranching and cowboys in the islands, and the meteoric rise and sudden fall of Cheyenne, “Holy City of the Cow.” At the turn of the twentieth century, larger-than-life personalities like “Buffalo Bill” Cody and Theodore Roosevelt capitalized on a national obsession with the Wild West and helped transform Cheyenne’s annual Frontier Days celebration into an unparalleled rodeo spectacle, the “Daddy of ‘em All.” The hopes of all Hawaii rode on the three riders’ shoulders during those dusty days in August 1908. The U.S. had forcibly annexed the islands just a decade earlier. The young Hawaiians brought the pride of a people struggling to preserve their cultural identity and anxious about their future under the rule of overlords an ocean away. In Cheyenne, they didn’t just astound the locals; they also overturned simplistic thinking about cattle country, the binary narrative of “cowboys versus Indians,” and the very concept of the Wild West. Blending sport and history, while exploring questions of identity, imperialism, and race, Aloha Rodeo spotlights an overlooked and riveting chapter in the saga of the American West.

"Intrigued by a way of life rich in tradition, devotion, and pride, mainlander photojournalist Michal McClure, over a three year period, traveled to the islands, where he was invited onto the ranches and into the lives of the paniolo. The result of the relationships forged and the trust earned is a remarkably candid and stunning chronicle of America's westernmost frontier, where close-knit paniolo families rise early to work the cattle as a crew, brothers and neighbors compete for pleasure and pride in dusty rodeo corrals, and knowledge is passed down to children in a tradition that honors both the paniolo's ties to the land and to the generations of cowboys that preceded him." "Bracketed by essays that provide insight into the rich cultural and spiritual history of the paniolo, McClure's pictorial essay records for posterity the vitality and vigor of a contemporary lifestyle that is, in the words of Dr. Billy Bergin, "uniquely Hawaiian, Western, and American.""--BOOK JACKET.
