The Vrooms of the Foothills, Volume 4: Ranching, the Real West (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781460225332)

Ranching, the Real West is Volume 4 in the series THE VROOMS OF THE FOOTHILLS. Once again and using 5 maps and over 280 photos, Bessie Vroom Ellis vividly illustrates the social history of southwestern Alberta. The captions are memory-filled vignettes highlighting the gritty determination of ranching families and cowboys to tame a new land.
The photos recall ranch work, play and perils, stories of the boys who went to War and the fun of a country Christmas. They are from settlers in the communities of Beaver Mines, Pincher Creek, Fort Macleod, Twin Butte, Mountain View, Caldwell and Waterton Park.
