G – History
Ocean View Community Center | March 31, 2025-April 28, 2025
Monday: 9:00 AM-10:15 AM
After America’s Civil War, Texas teemed with over 2 million long horn cattle. The ranchers could get $2 a head in Texas or $40 a head at the rail heads in Kansas. In detail, this class describes how the large cattle drives operated, including the men, cattle, horses and trails. These drives were difficult, dangerous and sometimes violent, yet amazing in accomplishment. This period represents just a few years in history, yet it portrays an iconic image of the west.
