Although the Chisholm Trail was open for less than two decades, millions of cattle traveled north over it. More than any of the other trails from Texas, it was the major route of cattle and horses, cowboys and cowmen, to Kansas railheads as well as the new ranches springing up all over the former ranges of the buffalo and the Plains Indians between 1867 and the Big Die-up of 1886 - 1887. In fact, the name Chisholm Trail came to be applied indiscriminately to all of the cattle trails north out of Texas. This book is an attempt to portray, in text and photographs, the way of life created by the Chisholm Trail during the period of the great drives.
