Texas Jack Omohundro
Will Rogers, who died on this day in 1935, was the very definition of American.
Born to a Cherokee Nation family in Oologah, Indian Territory (now Oklahoma), Rogers joked that though his ancestors didn't come over on the Mayflower, they "met the boat".
Dog Iron Ranch, the property of Will's father Clement Vann Rogers, had as many as 10,000 Texas longhorns, and Will, the youngest of eight children, grew up in the saddle. An avid reader and good student, Will quickly decided that the saddle was more comfortable than the school desk, and, after dropping out of school in the 10th grade, worked his father's ranch full time.
When he was 22 years old, Will and a friend set off from Oklahoma to Argentina, sure that their cowboy skills would serve them well as gauchos on the Argentine Pampas. They bought a ranch and worked for five months before running out of money. Unwilling to return home and face his father's disappointment, Will boarded a boat to South Africa, where he got a job as a rancher at Mooi River Station.
Soon, a Wild West Circus passed through the area and Will Rogers went to see the show, intent on asking for a job handling the show's livestock. Rogers would later tell a reporter for the New York Times:
"Texas Jack had a little Wild West aggregation that visited the camps and did a tremendous business. I did some roping and riding, and Jack, who was one of the smartest showmen I ever knew, took a great interest in me. It was he who gave me the idea for my original stage act with my pony. I learned a lot about show business from him. He could do a bum act with a rope that an ordinary man couldn't get away with, and make the audience think it was great, so I used to study him by the hour, and from him, I learned the great secret of the show business—knowing when to get off. It's the fellow who knows when to quit that the audience wants more of."
This Texas Jack was not John B. Omohundro. Actually, no one, not even the man himself, knew this Texas Jack's real name. He was born sometime between 1863 and 1867, and his parents had been killed when their wagon train headed west was ambushed, reportedly by a Comanche raiding party. The child had been taken captive, along with two young girls from another family's wagon, but was rescued by the cowboy Texas Jack Omohundro, who delivered the children to a Kansas orphanage, selling the Comanche ponies to provide funding for the children's education. The boy grew up not knowing his name or the names of his parents, only knowing that the man who rescued him was called Texas Jack. After Omohundro's 1880 death, this young man showed up at the Omohundro home in Palmyra, Virginia, asking for the family's blessing to use his rescuer's name as he set off on his own venture into show business.
Initially called Texas Jack Junior, by the time he had established himself as a performer in America and Europe he dropped the "Junior" entirely. By the time Will Rogers asked for a job in Ladysmith, South Africa, his show was billed as Texas Jack's Wild West Circus. According to Rogers, he asked the circus owner if he was really from Texas, if he was related to the famous Texas Jack from the dime novels, and if he had any jobs wrangling horses for the show. Jack Jr. asked the young man if he could put together a rope trick act. The young man said he believed he could and Jack Jr. hired him on the spot, suggesting the young performer adopt the nickname “The Cherokee Kid”. Performing the same lasso act that Texas Jack Omohundro introduced to the world thirty years earlier, this was Will Rogers’ first job in show business.
Will Rogers died in a plane crash with aviation pioneer Wiley Post in Alaska on August 15th, 1935. Before his death, the State of Oklahoma commissioned a statue of him to place in the United States Capital's National Statuary Hall collection. Rogers agreed on the condition that his statue face the House Chamber so that Rogers could "keep an eye on Congress." Since the statue's installation in 1939, each President of the United States of America has rubbed the Will Rogers statue's left foot for good luck before stepping into the House Chamber to deliver the State of the Union address.

When this picture was taken, likely in early September of 1873, these three men were the most famous Westerners alive. Seated on the right is Buffalo Bill Cody, who earned his name as the greatest buffalo hunter alive before rising to fame as a scout for the United States Army. Across the table sits Wild Bill Hickok, the deadliest gunslinger of his day and perhaps the most fabled lawman in American history. And behind these two men, with his right hand resting familiarly on Wild Bill's shoulder, stands Texas Jack Omohundro.
Omohundro wasn't a buffalo hunter or a lawman in Kansas cow towns. Texas Jack was a cowboy. The Earl of Dunraven, who hunted with both Texas Jack and Buffalo Bill, wrote:
"Buffalo Bill had always been in Government employ as a scout, but Texas Jack had been a cowboy, one of the old-time breed of men who drove herds of cattle from way down South to Northern markets for weeks and months, through a country infested by Indians and white cattle thieves."
When these three men toured as The Scouts of the Plains, audiences who rushed to their local theaters to catch a glimpse of their heroes were gladly spending their hard-earned money to see the West's most famous scout, its most famous lawman, and its most famous cowboy together on stage. They were so famous that nearly 150 years after they posed for this picture, they still shape our stories of the American West. Buffalo Bill became the most famous American, and perhaps the most famous person full stop, during his own lifetime. His Wild West show performed before thousands on both sides of the Atlantic, shaping the public perception of the West in his own image forever. Wild Bill was struck down by an assassin's bullet, but his name lives on, inspiring countless books, movies, television shows, and trips to the small South Dakota town of Deadwood, where Hickok was killed and is buried.
Texas Jack didn't live long enough to ensure his name would be remembered forever and he didn't "die with his boots on" to go down in history. But his life and his legacy as America's first famous cowboy, the man who introduced the lasso act to the stage and rode with Pawnee warriors across the western prairie, has influenced every cowboy story that followed. From Owen Wister's The Virginian to Louis L'amour's Hondo, from Tom Mix to Cary Grant, from Clint Eastwood's Man With No Name to John Wayne's Ethan Edwards—every cowboy has been cast in the mold of Texas Jack.

The Unredeemed Captive: A Family Story from Early America, John Demos. A somewhat dated though foundational work centered around the capture of Puritan minister John Williams and his family by a group of Catholic Mohawks in 1704. A good exploration of Puritan thought on civilization, nationhood, redemption, suffering, and race. Paperback, good condition. Price: $3.00 or best offer.
A Little Commonwealth: Family Life in Plymouth Colony, John Demos. A somewhat dated but foundational (and short) look at the Puritan family. Paperback, used condition. Price: $2.00 if shipped alone, $1.00 if ordered with other books, plus shipping.
American Sphinx: The Character of Thomas Jefferson, Joseph Ellis. A solid Jefferson biography that manages to not be pure apologism, as so many of them are. A good start if you want to know more about Jefferson. Paperback, very good condition. Price: $3.50 plus shipping, or best offer.
To Begin the World Anew: The Genius and Ambiguities of the American Founders, Bernard Bailyn. If you liked Gary Wood’s The Radicalism of the American Revolution, you’ll love this book. Five essays by one of the seminal scholars of the American Revolution And What It Meant, looking at both the origins and long-lasting impact of the ideas and actions of the “big five.” Short, highly readable, recommend for anyone interested in the “founding fathers.” Paperback, like new condition. Price: $3.00 if shipped alone, $1.50 if shipped with other books, plus shipping.
Men of Letters in the Early Republic: Cultivating Forums of Citizenship, Catherine O’Donnell Kaplan.

The Web of Empire: English Cosmopolitans in an Age of Expansion, 1560-1660, Alison Games. A really interesting critical look at the cultural assumptions and changes to those in the English-speaking world during the transition from the so-called “Age of Exploration” to the era of settler-colonialism, with a focus on shifting meanings and boundaries on the categories of “civilized,” “nation,” and “christian.” Provides a good lead-up to the adoption of chattel-slavery by the English. I really enjoyed it. Paperback, very good condition. Price: $3.50 plus shipping or best offer.
Toussaint Louverture: A Biography, Madison Bell. Solid biography of the leader of the Haitian Revolution. If you are interested in the history of slavery, the history of revolution as a global historical phenomenon, the history of the Caribbean, or the history of US race relations on an international scale, you will enjoy this book a lot. Hardcover with dust-jacket, very good condition. Price: $6.00 plus shipping or best offer.
King Philip’s War: Civil War in New England, 1675-1676, James Drake. A paradigm-shifting critical look at the single most deadly conflict in American history, which is almost completely forgotten. Will challenge the way you think about race relations between Native Americans and English settlers in early colonial New England. This book is one of my favorites, and I’m actually waffling on listing it. It gives horrible context to the actions of both colonists and Native Americans, and explores the concept of atrocity across cultural and historical divides. Paperback, good condition. Price: $4.00 plus shipping or best offer.
American Slavery, American Freedom: The Ordeal of Colonial Virginia, Edmund S. Morgan. If you want to understand the institution of slavery in American history, you need to read this book, period.

Sarah’s Long Walk: The Free Blacks of Boston and How their Struggle for Equality Changed America, Stephen and Paul Kendrick.

Price: $3.50 plus shipping or best offer.
The Civil War of 1812: American Citizens, British Subjects, Irish Rebels, and Indian Allies, Alan Taylor. Really good and comprehensive look at the 1812 war along the Canadian border. Author has won both the Pulitzer and the Bancroft. If you only read one book about 1812, this should be it. Hardcover with jacket, good condition. Price: $5.50 plus shipping or best offer.
The Jeffersonian Crisis: Courts and Politics in the Young Republic, Richard Ellis. If you want to know more about the issues surrounding the Burr conspiracy and the Louisiana purchase, and Jefferson’s war with John Marshall, this is a good book. Paperback, used condition.

Women Before the Bar: Gender, Law, and Society in Connecticut, 1639-1789, Cornelia Hughes Dayton. One of my favorites. Debating even listing it.
