She is the editor of The Historical Animal and author of Entertaining Elephants: Animal Agency and Business in the American Circus . Klappentext Rodeo is a dangerous sport that reveals many westerners as people proudly tolerant of risk and violence, and ready to impose these values on livestock. In Rodeo: An Animal History , Nance pushes past standard histories and the sport's publicity to show how rodeo was shot through with stubbornness and human failing as much as fortitude and community spirit.
