With help from drovers on the nearby Western Trail, they have built up a herd. Looking beyond Beaver Creek, the boys acquire grazing rights in Colorado and Texas. As others fail, they persevere, learning all aspects of a rapidly changing operation ... from maturing beef to managing, shipping, and selling it." A scarce title. Fine, bright copy in an attractive dust jacket with minor wear to the foot of spine. An exceptional copy.
