New book about bronc rider Bill Smith

This info comes from Jenny Shank who writes the always excellent "Books & Writers" section for New West:

The University of Oklahoma Press recently published Margot Kahn’s Horses That Buck: The Story of Champion Bronc Rider Bill Smith, which tells the story of Bill Smith, a Wyoming-raised cowboy who became a “three-time world champion saddle bronc rider.” Kahn will be touring the region in the coming weeks, appearing at Shakespeare & Company in Missoula, Mont. (May 14, 7 p.m.), Borders in Bozeman, Mont. (May 15, 7 p.m.), White Horse in Thermopolis, Wyo. (May 16, 2 p.m.), The Readers Cove in Fort Collins, Colo., (12-3 p.m.), and Anthology Book Co. in Loveland, Colo., (May 19, 6 p.m.)
