What drew men to the West? Redemption for past lives and hope to find self-satisfaction in a new land with a new beginning. Men drifted West after being mustered out of the service after the Civil War. Some were from a winning Army. Others were dressed in gray, also looking for a new way of life. Miners seeking fortune extracted from the Western earth. Homesteaders putting their hopes and dreams into the cultivation of a new land, one they could call their own. Men descending from the mountains when the time of the mountain man was over. Mere kids from the East believing the West was a land of adventure. Large sections of lands were staked out by ranchers willing to hold onto each blade of grass with every fiber of their being. The West was conquered by those with vision, sweat, and tenacity, those courageous enough to dare to dream. This is the story of such men. How they came to the rocking star ranch and why they stayed. Men with sand, man with honor, men to ride the high range with. This is their story.
