Meer over het boek
Set in 1880, the narrative chronicles Fort Worth's pivotal transformation as cattle drives decline. It details the city's determined efforts to attract railroads, which catalyzed the development of modern infrastructure, including paved streets and waterworks, establishing Fort Worth as a transportation hub. Despite setbacks like the Panic of 1893, the arrival of major meatpacking companies, Armour and Swift, in 1903 revitalized the economy, diversifying it beyond cattle into meatpacking and solidifying the city's growth.
