Haunted by the mental picture of the body of patriot cowboy LaVoy Finicum lying in the winter Oregon snow, Canada Free Press wrote back in March of 2016... ""Maybe some day, a song writer with heart will come along and mark his passing with 'The Ballad of LaVoy Finicum' to remind us all in song about the cold-blooded cruelty of governments who put power and one-upmanship ahead of the dignity of human life."
That day has come. Much better than any ballad is the book,'Liberty Rising: One Cowboy's Ascent: The Murder of LaVoy Finicum', written by Thara Tenney, eldest child of the LaVoy and Jeanette Finicum dozen.
