These are the chronicles of the trail drivers of Texas--those rugged men and, sometimes, women who drove cattle and horses up the trails from Texas to northern markets in the late 1800s.

First published in the 1920s and reissued by the University of Texas Press in 1985, this classic work is now available in a handsome paperback edition...
