Book Description

Excerpt from The Kansas Historical Quarterly, 1936, Vol. 5 At the annual meeting Of the old-time Trail Drivers' Association in San Antonio there ensues a perennial dispute both as to the origin of the Chisholm trail and its location. At present they seem to be no nearer the solution than at the beginning. In their monu mental work entitled, The Trail Drivers of Texas (1925 edition), written by the trail drivers themselves, we find on page 289 one explanation, while on page 950 we find an emphatic denial Of this, with quite another explanation set forth in no uncertain terms.
