Synopsis History of the West with Sam Payne: Trail to Cheyenne by : Cody Assmann
The year is 1868, and the railroad is only beginning to transform the West. Railroad camps are turning into permanent towns and a new way of life is taking hold. Although young, Sam Payne clearly sees the changes, but he doesn't know what they mean. His uncertainty leaves him filled with doubt and fear about the future. Struggling to find his way, he takes a chance and commits to an emerging enterprise; the cattle drive. After the Civil War, men earnestly began driving herds of Texas longhorns north to meet a growing demand for beef. Allured by potential profits, Sam joins a group of Texas men to bring a herd to Cheyenne. Crossing some of the toughest country in the West, Sam and his companions meet an endless array of challenges as they push over 2,000 wild cattle up the trail. These difficulties force Sam to question his motives for the drive and his future in an uncertain world. If he can make sense of it all, he just may find his North Star.History of the West with Sam Payne: Trail to Cheyenne is the third book in the Sam Payne series.

Synopsis The Chisholm Trail by : Sam P. Ridings
This frontier classic is one of the best books written about the world’s greatest cattle trail, the Chisholm Trail, a trail that was approximately eight hundred miles long, running from San Antonio, Texas to Abilene, Kansas. It is a comprehensive book about the cattle drives of our western frontier and the interesting characters associated with them. Such characters include Charles Goodnight, Charles A. Siringo, Joseph G. McCoy and various Indian Chiefs and gunslingers. After the Civil War, many cattlemen saw that there was money to be made in moving cattle northward. Joseph G. McCoy built shipping pens at Abilene, which became known as the terminating point of the Chisholm Trail. When the trial was most active, millions of cattle and mustang accompanied their drivers on the two to three month journey that it took to travel across. This book is the story of those cattle and their drivers, who fought through Indian ambushes, stampedes and cattle rustlers. Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Arcade imprint, are proud to publish a broad range of books for readers interested in history--books about World War II, the Third Reich, Hitler and his henchmen, the JFK assassination, conspiracies, the American Civil War, the American Revolution, gladiators, Vikings, ancient Rome, medieval times, the old West, and much more. While not every title we publish becomes a New York Times bestseller or a national bestseller, we are committed to books on subjects that are sometimes overlooked and to authors whose work might not otherwise find a home.

Synopsis Charles Goodnight by : William T. Hagan
Charles Goodnight was a pioneer of the early range cattle industry—an opinionated and profane but energetic and well-liked rancher. Goodnight’s story is now re-examined by William T. Hagan in this brief, authoritative account that considers the role of ranching in general—and Goodnight in particular—in the development of the Texas Panhandle. The first major reassessment of his life in seventy years, Charles Goodnight: Father of the Texas Panhandle traces its subject’s life from hardscrabble farmer to cattle baron, giving close attention to lesser-known aspects of his last thirty years. Goodnight came up in the days when much of Texas was free range and open to occupancy by any cattleman brave enough to stake a claim. Hagan shows how Goodnight learned the cattle business and became one of the most famous ranchers of the Southwest. Hagan also presents a clearer picture than ever before of Goodnight’s business arrangements and investments, including the financial setbacks of his later life. As entertaining as it is informative, Hagan’s account takes readers back to the Palo Duro Canyon and the Staked Plains to share insights into the cattleman’s life—riding the range, fighting grass fires, driving cattle to the nearest railhead—the very stuff of cowboy legend and lore. This fascinating biography enriches our understanding of a Texas icon.
