Book Overview

Rodeo immortality dangled in front of the beloved, veteran bull rider Freckles Brown like a sack of gold on that frigid December night at the National Finals Rodeo in 1967.

The forty-six-year-old former world champion had been granted one opportunity to forever - and against all odds - be remembered as the first cowboy to ride the "unrideable" Tornado or forever wonder what might have been. Either way, Freckles now stood moments away from forever.

The Ride captures the heartbeat of the man and the moment in this profoundly moving historical narrative that will leave readers in suspense. For what happened next would forever be etched in rodeo history and lore . . .
