Book Synopsis The Old Chisholm Trail by : Wayne Ludwig
Download or read book The Old Chisholm Trail written by Wayne Ludwig and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2018-09-04 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Old Chisholm Trail charts the evolution of the major Texas cattle trails, explores the rise of the Chisholm Trail in legend and lore, and analyzes the role of cattle trail tourism long after the end of the trail driving era itself. The result of years of original and innovative research—often using documents and sources unavailable to previous generations of historians—Wayne Ludwig’s groundbreaking study offers a new and nuanced look at an important but short-lived era in the history of the American West. Controversy over the name and route of the Chisholm Trail has persisted since before the dust had even settled on the old cattle trails. But the popularity of late nineteenth-century Wild West shows, dime novels, and twentieth-century radio, movie, and television western drama propelled the already bygone era of the cattle trail into myth—and a lucrative one at that. Ludwig correlates the rise of automobile tourism with an explosion of interest in the Chisholm Trail. Community leaders were keenly aware of the potential economic impact if tourists were induced to visit their town rather than another, and the Chisholm Trail was often just the hook needed. Numerous “historical” markers were erected on little more than hearsay or boosterish memory, and as a result, the true history of the Chisholm Trail has been overshadowed. The Old Chisholm Trail is the first comprehensive examination of the Chisholm Trail since Wayne Gard’s 1954 classic study, The Chisholm Trail, and makes an important—and modern—contribution to the history of the American West.

Book Synopsis The Wests of Texas by : Bruce Shackelford
Download or read book The Wests of Texas written by Bruce Shackelford and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2015-04-21 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the Wests of Texas, noted author Bruce M. Shackelford tells the story of the West family of Lavaca County, forgotten Texas legends. Originally from Tennessee, Washington and Mary West moved to Lavaca County, Texas, in the early 1850s. There they raised three sons who were destined to leave an indelible mark on the Texas cattle industry. At the end of the Civil War, George, the eldest, made his first trail drives as so many Texans did. But unlike many who made the trip, George saw the venture as the business of moving cattle to market and became a professional drover. As his brothers Sol and Ike came of age, George brought them into his already growing business of trailing cattle herds north. The brothers became some of the most important drovers in cattle business, standing out during the era of the great trail drives. In their lifetimes their accomplishments were legendary, but today they have been largely forgotten. Their history and achievements are examined in this beautiful volume illustrated with photographs and personal effects from the family.

Book Synopsis The Western Cattle Trail, 1874-1897 by : Gary Kraisinger
Download or read book The Western Cattle Trail, 1874-1897 written by Gary Kraisinger and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1967, the authors have had one mission: to tell readers exactly where the Western Cattle Trail was located and to give a history of its place in the American West. Their first book, The Western, the greatest cattle trail, 1874-1886, presented the location and history of the trunk line during that time period. In this second volume, the entire trunk line is presented from Texas to Canada, showing its route before and after the Kansas quarantine of 1885, plus a discussion of the system's feeder, detour, and splinter routes. The project encompasses the history that surrounds the trail. Included in this tale are the trail's cattle towns, river crossings, cowboy and homesteader comments, the Texas cattle fever, quarantine lines, herd laws, and Indian encounters. What emerges is an overall picture of the cattle-driving industry from its conception in the 1840s on the first trail system going north, the Shawnee, to its demise in 1897 on the Western Trail System.
