A history of chuckwagon racing with particular emphasis on its development in Alberta and its association with the Calgary Stampede. Drawing on historical research and the author's experience as a rancher, former chuckwagon driver, and outrider, the book traces the origins and evolution of the sport from its ranching roots to its place in modern rodeo competition. It examines the traditions, rules, personalities, and techniques of chuckwagon racing, with substantial attention to the Calgary Stampede and its role in shaping the event.
