Brett Crosby

An extraordinary account of life in the early 20th century West, a transitional period between the Old West and the early modern ranching industry that predominated the next century. The author offers fascinating firsthand insight into life in remote western areas during the difficult times of the 1920's, which remained largely unchanged from the frontier era, and also the subsequent Great Depression. Spanning over 50 years, his story is also a picture of rugged individualism as he navigated the transition from open range to modern ranching on private and federal land. You won't regret reading this inspiring story of strength, determination, and fortitude.
