Born into slavery and freed as a boy after the Civil War, Nat Love (pronounced "Nate") soon found fame as a talented cowboy in Arizona, Texas, and throughout the West.  His autobiography The Life and Adventures of Nat Love (1907) serves as a vital counter to the myth that the "Old West" is the sole domain of white men and highlights the significant reality of African American involvement in American Western culture.
