IRVINE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Boot Barn, the largest western and work wear retailer in the nation, will commemorate its 45th year by featuring the American cowboy in Shelter From The Storm, a coffee table book to be released today. The self-published 336-page hardcover book, an oversized tribute to the larger-than-life figures embodying this country’s spirit of grit and determination, will retail for $54.95 online beginning today and in Boot Barn stores across the nation beginning in late October.
