The Livestock Industry of the United States in the Nineteenth Century
Animal City
Author: Andrew A. Robichaud
Publisher:
ISBN: 067491936X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 353
Book Description
American urbanites once lived alongside livestock and beasts of burden. But as cities grew, human-animal relationships changed. The city became a place for pets, not slaughterhouses or working animals. Andrew Robichaud traces the far-reaching consequences of this shift--for urban landscapes, animal- and child-welfare laws, and environmental justice.

Cattle Kingdom in the Ohio Valley 1783–1860
Author: Paul C. Henlein
Publisher: University Press of Kentucky
ISBN: 081316303X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
The great beef-cattle industry of the American West was not born full grown beyond the Mississippi. It had its antecedents in the upper South, the Midwest, and the Ohio Valley, where many Texas cattlemen learned their trade. In this book Mr. Henlein tells the story of the cattle kingdom of the Ohio Valley -- a kingdom which encompassed the Bluegrass region in Kentucky and the valleys of the Scioto, Miami, Wabash, and Sangamon in Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois. The book begins with the settlement of the Ohio Valley, by emigration from the South and East, in the latter part of the eighteenth century; it ends with the westward movement of the cattlemen, this time to Missouri and the plains, toward the end of the nineteenth century. Mr. Henlein describes the intricate pattern of agricultural activities which grew into a successful system of producing and marketing cattle; the energetic upbreeding and extensive importations which created the great blooded herds of the Ohio Valley; and the relations of the cattlemen with the major cattle markets. An interesting part of this story is the chapter which tells how the cattlemen of the Ohio Valley, between 1805 and 1855, drove their fat cattle over the mountains to the eastern markets, and how these long drives, like the more famous Texas drives of a later day, disappeared with the advent of the railroads. This well-documented study is an important contribution to the history of American agriculture.

The Kansas Beef Industry
Author: Charles L. Wood
Publisher: University Press of Kansas
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 376
Book Description
This book relates the modern development of the Kansas beef cattle industry, combining both the history of production--including specific business problems and the significant work in upbreeding--and an examination of the marketing aspects of the industry that became so important during the twentieth century. Sharpest focus is on the period 1890 to 1940, after the Western beef industry had passed through the transition from using the expansive, openrange method of beef production to the more rational and organized methods of today.
