Red white black : a true story of race and rodeo / Rick Steber.

Steber, Rick, 1946- (author.).

Summary:

"At the 1911 Pendleton Round-Up, the Saddle Bronc Championship of the Northwest came down to three men of different skin colors - Jackson Sundown, a Nez Perce Indian, John Spain, a white man from pioneering stock, and George Fletcher, an African American. Red. White. Black. What happened that September day in 1911 - the judges' decision and the reaction of the crowd in the aftermath - forever changed our history, and the way the sport of rodeo, and the emerging West, was to look at itself."--back cover.
