This book comprises a fascinating and authentic look into the lives of some of the richest and most private ranches in Texas. This is a book that will greatly appeal to anyone with an interest in the historical singularity that is Texas, offering its readers a unique insight in to the ''real world'' of Texas ranch life and the ever-fading tradition of true ranching that made it what it is today. Many antique books such as this are increasingly rare and costly, and it is with this in mind that we are proud to be republishing this text here complete with a new introduction on the subject.

Fountain Goodlet Oxsheer--like Slaughter or Goodnight--was an unusual and appealing name for one of Texas' most dynamic cattle ranchers. Once the baron of an intricate network of ranches that stretched from Oklahoma and the Texas Staked Plains down to northern Mexico, Oxsheer prospered, endured, and sought to run his empire and live by his own code of ethics. But the great ranching era ended, and twentieth-century phenomena such as world war and materialistic lifestyles joined the Dust Bowl tempest to obscure his renown and obliterate his fortune. The forgotten cattle king is brought to life in this vivid narrative, made possible by the discovery of voluminous family memorabilia carefully preserved by one of Oxsheer's descendants and now held by the Oxsheer family of Fort Worth. This very American epic of the forgotten cattle king is an eloquent example of how an independent spirit, sacrifice, and labor made a harsh wilderness into a cherished home for generations of Texans.

Wells Brothers by Andy Adams is the western frontier story following young cowboys Joel and Dell Wells. Excerpt: "These were all big beeves today, going to some fort on the Yellowstone River. And they had such wide, sweeping horns! And the smartest cattle! An hour before noon one of the point men gave a shrill whistle, and the whole column of beeves turned aside and began feeding. The men called it 'throwing the herd off the trail to graze.' It was just like saying halt! to soldiers--as we saw at that reunion in Ohio."

Praise for KINGS OF TEXAS "Kings of Texas is a fresh and very welcome history of the great King Ranch. It's concise but thorough, crisply written, meticulous, and very readable. It should find a wide audience." -Larry McMurtry, author of Sin Killer and the Pulitzer Prize--winning Lonesome Dove "This book is about the King Ranch, but it is about much more than that. A compelling chronicle of war, peace, love, betrayal, birth, and death in the region where the Texas-Mexico border blurs in the haze of the Wild Horse Desert, it is also an intriguing detective story with links to the present-and a first-rate read." -H.W. Brands, author of The Age of Gold and the bestselling Pulitzer Prize finalist The First American

Andy Adams was a true Texas cowboy, a veteran of the long, dangerous trail drives of the 1880s. He knew firsthand the buying, handling, and selling of cattle and the varied skills of the ranch hand. About Adams' classic introductory novel, noted Texas historian J. Frank Dobie had this to say:“If all other books on trail driving were destroyed, a reader could still get a just and authentic conception of trail men, trail work, range cattle, cow horses, and the cow country in general from THE LOG OF A COWBOY….WELLS BROTHERS and THE RANCH ON THE BEAVER are stories for boys. I read them with pleasure long after I was grown.”
