(3) 4-6 In clear, direct prose, Ancona describes the history, traditions, and celebrations of the charro, or Mexican cowboy. Bright, crisply reproduced color photographs add liveliness to descriptions of the rodeo-like competition in which charros participate; the ways in which charros and charras train; and the celebration of the cowboy, known as El día del charro. Glos.
