Originally published in 1885. Excellent descriptions of the Great Plains cattle operations including lists of the leading cattle companies of the early 1880's and tables of projected herd growth. This book is a must for those interested in the physical aspects of the Great Plains area of the West and in the industry which brought wealth and civilization to that part of the United States. Edward Everett Dale (February 8, 1879 - May 28, 1972) was an American historian and faculty member of the University of Oklahoma. He was a proponent of Frederick Jackson Turner's "frontier thesis". Having lived in Colorado for many years, and being engaged in raising stock, the author became fully acquainted with the cattle business. Since he has not heard of any book which treats the subject of cattle-raising in the West fully and systematically, he hopes that this publication may be of some use to his readers who contemplate embarking in this great industry. Getting rich or going broke can be a simple matter of timing. That's how it worked out for Baron Walter von Richthofen, uncle and godfather of Manfred von Richthofen, the famed German flying ace of World War I. Frontier America's von Richthofen got rich once and went broke twice while building up the city of Denver, Colorado-highlighted by his personal castle, which remains a mile-high landmark more than 100 years after the family finally moved out. Walter Freiherr von Richthofen was born on January 30, 1850, at Kreisewitz, Silesia, then part of Prussia, later Germany, now Poland. Baron is the English equivalent of his Germanic title, which means, roughly, "a man entitled to his own castle." Walter formed the Denver Chamber of Commerce, along with friend John Cochrane. Meanwhile, Richthofen latched on to two other pursuits-the cattle industry and a baronial castle in Denver. He wrote a book in English called Cattle-Raising on the Plains of North America (1885), in which he proclaimed that the Colorado front-range area was "the largest and richest grass and pasture region of the world, and that it will probably soon become the most important beef-producing country on the globe." Money flowed in from America and Europe. Unfortunately, the brutal winter of 1886 was a catastrophe for the range-fed cattle industry, and the urban market of the time preferred fattened steers from Chicago-area feedlots.

First Edition. Original gold stamped 12 mo green cloth with red border, 102[6] pp. Some extremity wear, and spine is slightly discolored. X-library copy, with library stamp on title page, and on one other page (bottom margin) and back fly leaf. Library record removed from back flyleaf leaving a couple of small holes on endpaper, not affecting any test. Normal age toning. Very good overall. Richthofen, who is supposed to be the father of the Red Baron, the World War I German flying ace, lived in Colorado for many years raising cattle. He wrote this book because there wasnâÂÂt much published at that time on cattle raising with the hope of aiding new participants in this growing industry. While the Great Plains was thought of as a desert by many, Richthofen saw it as a great natural setting for raising cattle. Plenty of sun, rain, and rich low-cost sources of food for them. In his works he talks a little about the special life of the cowboy, who possessed much skill with the lasso and branding iron. But also points out how the business was changing. Cowboys no longer needed to chase down cows on horses and lasso them for branding, but rather drive them into crowed stocks where the y could be branded with much less fuss. While he saw escalating land prices as a challenge, he felt the growing populations of America and Europe still offered great business potential for those interested in this industry. He includes statistics relating to profitability of cattle raising. âÂÂA scarce little book dealing with the business side of cattle raisingâ¦âÂÂ.
