Synopsis

Forsaking opulent turn-of-the-19th-century Boise for grassy pastures in south-central Idaho and eastern Oregon, the Davis family embarked on the demanding life of 20th-century ranching and never looked back. Here, in their own words, they travel old trails again, from cattle drives to meetings where million-dollar deals were sealed with a handshake and a glass of Scotch. Over 60 years, Tom Davis bought and sold 22 ranches—a feat impossible to repeat in the 21st century—and left a legacy. This book tells how he did it. Woven throughout are Jemima Davis' recollections and recipes, anecdotes from friends, family and business associates, and photos from the 1800's to today of ranch life near Cascade and Emmett, Jordan Valley, Vale, and the historic Alvord below Steens Mountain. Illustrated with more than 200 images and maps and amplified with letters and genealogy charts, The Resurrection of the Bar O is more than a family history—it's a coming-of-age saga of the American West and the pioneers who built it.
