The Chisholm Trail: Joseph McCoy's Great Gamble - Public Lands History

One hundred fifty years ago the McCoy brothers of Springfield, Illinois, bet their fortunes on Abilene, Kansas, then just a slapdash way station. Instead of an endless horizon of prairie grasses, they saw a bustling outlet for hundreds of thousands of Texas Longhorns. This is the story of how that gamble paid off, transforming the cattle trade.
