Set in the Flatwillow country of central Montana, the 115-year-old N Bar Ranch is one of the West's most remarkable spreads. Step back in time to the days of the great Texas cattle drives, uncover the tragic mysteries of millionaire Tommy Cruse and his wayward daughter Mamie, trace the ranch's economic fortunes from 1885 to the present, and meet the ranch's many cowboys and characters.

From Gary Glynn, The Montana Journal

“ . . . vividly brings to life the N Bar's history through the eyes of the owners, managers, and cowhands who built it into a legendary cattle ranch.”
