Fred Barton and the Warlords' Horses of China: How an American Cowboy Brought the Old West to the Far East
Larry Weirather
Silk banners and stone dragons, dusty corrals and saddle leather - the North China plains of the warlords meets the cowboy culture of Western America in the years before World War II. Fred Barton led an extraordinary enterprise to supply horses for the feudal warlords. Yet Fred Barton himself remains enigmatic…a cowboy, adventurer, promoter, who had his eyes on many prizes.
