Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. After three generations of hardscrabble cattle ranching, the discovery of oil on the Caldwell's South Texas is a catalyst for change. Great-granddaughter and fourth-generation matriarch, Leslie Caldwell, uses her wiles and contacts to influence the passing of the rural electrification act and the growth of Carrizo Springs - originally one of several field camps on the cattle ranch. The family drilling company, Nueces Oil & Gas, manages the oilfield assets, and Leslie's love for all things large and mechanical leads to the purchase of a DC-2 airplane for the company and the expansion of a small landing strip on the ranch. Leslie has influential friends in Washington and Fort Sam Houston. After the bombing of Pearl Harbor, the isolated Caldwell ranch becomes a war effort asset and one of many secret pilot training bases in Texas. This is a story of a closely knit family, their love of the land, and their unselfish dedication to their community and country. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Antonio Gomez left his wealthy family's Valencia cattle ranch in 1799 to settle his family in the New World. He possessed the confidence bred of wealth and status that he would readily be awarded a Spanish Land Grant. Antonio became discouraged as there was very little land available, but he got lucky. Antonio was awarded a 520,000-acre ranch between the Nueces and Rio Grande Rivers, resulting from a heroic act for the Crown. He came to realize that the hardscrabble ranch life was not what he wanted and took the opportunity to settle a gambling debt by initiating a lease deal with Lee Caldwell, newly arrived with his wife from Tennessee and seeking land. Antonio met with ill fate, but Lee continued to herd and market cattle and pay his taxes. He and his family survived Indians, violence, drought, and hard times, and experienced the events that led to the Republic of Texas joining the United States. The family made a comfortable life cattle ranching, but the subsequent discovery of oil on the ranch by Lee's great-granddaughter sealed the fate of an empire that had lasted more than 130 years.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. In 1867, young trail hand Glenn Taggert stops on the Pecos River and finds more than water; he finds a dream. In the wild country between the Devils and Pecos Rivers, he stakes his future on a vast cattle ranch, teaming up with Gail Russel, a sharp railroad land agent and banker's daughter. Together, they fight to build the Longhorn Ranch out of tents, wild longhorns, new water wells, and the coming railroad.Floods, drought, market swings, and men who want their land all threaten what they've built. A brutal dry spell forces Glenn to burn prickly pear to keep his herd alive-and a deep well drilled to save the cattle strikes something unexpected in the limestone below: oil.As Glenn's son Dan grows up in the saddle and beside the drill rigs, the Taggerts are pulled into the early Texas oil boom, where hard choices, family loyalty, and a changing West will decide the fate of the Longhorn Ranch.
