Sketches from the Ranch: A Montana MemoirIn 1892 a stocky Danish immigrant named Magnus Jensen rode into south central Montana. He liked what he saw and staked his future on the ranch he would carve out there. Today, Dan Aadland and his wife, Emily, live on the ranch built by Jensen, Emily's grandfather. More than a century has passed, but the nature of ranching in Montana is little changed. Sensitive to the timelessness of the land, author Aadland approaches his ranching life as Thoreau
In 1892 a stocky Danish immigrant named Magnus Jensen rode into south-central Montana. He liked what he saw and staked his future on the ranch he would carve out there. Today, Dan Aadland and his wife, Emily, live on the ranch built by Jensen, Emily's grandfather. More than a century has passed, but the nature of ranching in Montana is little changed. Sensitive to the timelessness of the land, author Aadland approaches his ranching life as Thoreau approached life at Walden Pond. In Sketches from the Ranch, Aadland brings ranching to life within the framework of one recent year. In simple but moving prose, he evokes the harsh beauty of the West, writing with as much elegance about breaking a colt as he does about the inner lives of cattle, the way his pickup handles in the snow, or how the relationship between a man and his horse often defines a good day on the ranch. Beautifully illustrated and lovingly told, Sketches from the Ranch bears poetic witness to the myth and reality that are the West.Binding Type: Paperback

Jazzy!
Looked fine and fit just right. Sequins do rub the neck a little, if the shirt collar isn't high enough. Really got a jazzy feel to it.

Fit great, good price, and fast shipping for a last minute NYE dinner
Let me start by saying that I had very low expectations, all I truly cared about was getting something “blingy” as fast as possible for a last minute New Years Eve dinner. I was impressed by the speed of arrival, price & floored by the quality. Now of course, this is NOT a tailored $300 jacket, but it was great for our evening. Did not shed any sequins, no problems with wrinkles, and didn’t have any weird smells. My husband said it was comfortable, and he plans to wear it again should the need arise.

Classy but stands out!
I bought this jacket for my teen son for homecoming and it was perfect! It was a great fit and the look was just as pictured. I have purchased several things from this seller for formal events and highly recommend them!

Not what I ordered!
Color: Silver, Size: XX-Large, Color: Silver, Size: XX-Large
I ordered this jacket for my boyfriend for New Years. Not only did it not fit according to the size chart (too small). It was nothing like what was pictured on the listing. The sequins were very light and cheaply sewn on. And the lining and button were WHITE! Not black as pictured. I have never had a problem with anything I ordered from Amazon until now. I returned it and was refunded. But, now have to find a different jacket. NOT HAPPY.
