      About This Book

      Other States were carved or born,
      Texas grew from hide and horn.

      There were problems to be solved before that became true. Where to sell the cattle which swarmed across the Texas ranges and how to get them to the market; also whether sufficient longhorns could be delivered at one time to make a long journey to a market profitable.
      Charles Goodnight thought he had the answers and aimed to prove it. Backed by Ole Devil Hardin's already legendary floating outfit, he set off with three thousand five hundred head of cattle for distant Fort Sumner. With Dusty Fog as his segundo, Goodnight meant to deliver his herd and so pave the way for Texas to grow from hide and horn.
