CATTLE RANCH, The Story of the Douglas Lake Cattle Company, by Nina G. Woolliams, is a tale that captures the sweep of the Canadian West, from Indian lore, the exploits of outlaws such as Bill Miner, to the machinations of land dealers, and even a royal visit!
Sixty miles from corner to corner, over 500,000 sprawling acres sheltering 11,000 head of cattle, the Douglas Lake Ranch is the largest privately owned ranch in Canada. Here is the riveting account of hard work and disaster, intrigue and success, both a lusty history of BC and an eye-opening chronicle of how a big, efficient ranch functions in today's business world.
