Cattle Industry’s Evolution Across the Plains States

The Western Nebraska Colorado Wyoming cattle region evolved from vast 1800s ranches to mid-sized herds with Herefords Anguses and crossbreds. It traces early markets and government dealings with Indians, the rise of major outfits Bay State Ogallala and Spade Ranch, and famed figures like Iliff Goodnight Coffee and Jones. Drought blizzards and price swings shaped survival and growth into modern ranching.
