 The Life of a Rodeo Star February 11, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Chris Ledoux was a 1970 and early 80 rodeo star. If you have ever wondered what a bare back bronc rider goes through to win the National Finals Rodeo bareback bronc riding championship this book is a must. The author David Brown takes you through the early days when Chris was just a kid watching his childhood rodeo stars perform where he got the desire to be rodeo bronc rider himself. Chris started in Little Britches Rodeo, then High School and College and on to be a professional rodeo star where he endured low pay, bad rides, and severe injuries, all the way to the NFR where Chris finally wins the Gold Buckle in the bareback riding to fulfill his Gold Buckle Dreams. This is one of my favorite books.
Great book, even for kids to read about rodeo. January 11, 2007

I've rodeoed for a number of years and been a Chris LeDoux fan for even longer. This was a great book about how much it took him to win the world. I passed it on to my younger brother who read it and thought it was great. It was a sad day in rodeo and country music when he passed away.

This is a look behind a legend - something I'm sure he'd deny. Chris left this world much too soon, but this covers his early days before Nashville took note through his name being mentioned in Garth's song. For Chris fans or rodeo fans...excellent book.
