The Trail Drive

By Ralph Compton and Scott Sowers

The only riches Texans had left after the Civil War were five million maverick longhorns and the brains, brawn, and boldness to drive them to the railroad. Despite the hazards of trailing longhorns across some three hundred miles of Indian Territory, this was the only way to get them where the money was. Ralph Compton brings this violent and magnificent time to life in an extraordinary Western epic based on the history-blazing trail drives.
