Dell and Joel Wells, redheads who have barely reached shaving age, are about to abandon their dead father's claim on Beaver Creek because it won't grow crops. Then unexpected events, and a drover seeking aid, allow them a decent chance in life. \u003cp\u003eFirst published in 1911, \u003ci\u003eWells\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eBrothers, The Young Cattle Kings\u003c\/i\u003e shows what happens when experienced enterprise meets youthful energy. The boys develop their own ranch on the Beaver, without capital but with honor. No amount of savvy can entirely prepare them for the risks: cruel winters, rapacious wolf packs, summer droughts, mysterious Texas fever, the shifting circumstances of the cattle trade. Andy Adams (1859-1935), author of the classic \u003ci\u003eLog of a Cowboy\u003c\/i\u003e (also available as a Bison Book), wraps the saga of the Wells brothers in authentic western atmosphere and lore.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bison\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/1997\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780803259294\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 370\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.93h x 5.27w x 0.93d","brand":"Andy Adams","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41635402219701,"sku":"9780803259294","price":14.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_c086439b-0d49-4d35-9771-02af68349ac9.jpg?v=1645500909","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/wells-brothers-the-young-cattle-kings-9780803259294","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
