    Pyrrhus Press specializes in bringing books long out of date back to life, allowing today’s readers access to yesterday’s treasures.
    Ike Fridge’s short book about the Chisum trail and life on the Western frontier in the late 19th century is a great contemporary account of life in the Wild West. From the intro:
    “Every Texan has read of the Chisum Trail and has heard stories of the happenings there on, and of the great beef herds piloted to northern markets over this "Hoof Railway" from the Lone Star State to Kansas.
    This trail had its beginning in Denton County, near the center of this great state, and crossed the Red River near where St. Jo now stands. It continued through the Indian Territory, crossing the Big Blue near where McAlister, Okla. Now is, and passed through the Osage Country where the world's wealthiest Indians are at present. This historic trail could be followed on to Coffeyville, Wichita, Abilene, and Fort Dodge, Kansas.
    This ‘Hoof Railway’ derived its name from that noble cattle king, Col. John Chisum, who opened the trail and drove cattle herds from his Clear Creek ranch in Denton county to the Kansas markets and the end of steel.”
