Six Score 22 says, "The best history of this great Oklahoma ranch and its owners, the Miller family. It recounts the ranch's progress from its founding by Col. George Miller in the 1870s to the later Wild West Show, continuing ranching operations, and final bankruptcy in the 1930s." Laid-in to this copy is a newspaper clipping dated "Sunday, May 9, 1937," telling of the book and its author. Fine bright copy with blue top edges also bright, in a bright dust jacket lightly sunned on the spine, lightly soiled on the rear cover, with light wear to the spine ends and the extremities, and a closed tear to top edge of rear panel but not affecting any lettering. Very scarce especially with the elusive dust jacket.
