More about the book
The urgent need for a market for Texas cattle post-Civil War led to significant transportation efforts, including a notable cattle drive in 1884 where nearly 80,000 cattle crossed the Red River. This route, primarily through the reservations of the Choctaw and Cherokee tribes, was essential for accessing the burgeoning Northwest market. The cattle, having overwintered in the north, developed desirable meat quality, highlighting the economic potential of this venture. The massive operation involved thousands of men and horses, showcasing the scale and ambition of the cattle industry during this era.
