Green was extremely upset when he saw the jacket because he felt no one could read his name. His rage was such that the publisher destroyed most of them and issued a new one with “Green” in white. Only a few of the original jackets survived. This variant was missed by Wilson in his excellent bibliography on Green. As new in its original shrink wrap. Reese, Six Score 49: “The story of the author’s early ventures as a horse trader, driving a herd of horses from West Texas to Bossier City, La., selling along the way.” A typically delightful story from Green about his experiences as a teenager driving the herd.
