Monty has even thrown a poem in about one of the meanest outlaws that ever lived.In chapter three, Monty’s Song, he collaborates with Grammy Award winning songwriter, Devon Dawson, on a ballad about Monty’s grandfather, Elmer Moncrief (a cattleman and Veteran of Foreign Wars).Chapter four, Heritage, showcases Monty’s agricultural roots with a touch of cowboy flare. Also included, are pieces on cowboy courting and a tribute to Texas A&M University.Chapter five, Hallelujah, describes Monty’s faith, love, and values for the Bible, God, and Jesus. Jennifer Denison, Senior Editor and Cowboy Culture Editor of Western Horseman says “Monty Moncrief Teel’s heartfelt dedication for Texas and ranching heritage, as well as his deep-rooted ties to his faith, the land, and the cowboy ways shine in this polished collection of poetry. The humor and emotion infused into each poem can only be done by someone who’s been there and done it.”Texas A&M professors, Dr. Glenn Holub and Dr. Jodi Sterle, say that, “Monty is a true Christian Aggie! He is true to his university, true to his Lord and Savior, and true to his friends. His cowboy poetry hits home with his readers, who remember the old cowboy ways, and he is entertaining to our students and others who want to know ‘the way it was.’”So, sit back, relax, and enjoy the poetry of Monty Moncrief Teel from his unique Texas Aggie, cowboy, and Christian perspective.
