HAGAN, WILLIAM T. Charles Goodnight: Father Of The Texas Panhandle.
University of Oklahoma Press, Norman: 2007. Volume 21 in the Oklahoma Western Biographies Series. h Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book.
Biography of one of the most important cattlemen of the American West. Charles Goodnight was a pioneer of the early range cattle industry Ñ an opinionated and profane but energetic and well-liked rancher. Goodnight's story is now re-examined by William T. Hagan in this brief, authoritative account that considers the role of ranching in generalÑand Goodnight in particularÑin the development of the Texas Panhandle. The first major reassessment of his life in seventy years, Charles Goodnight: Father of the Texas Panhandle traces its subject's life from hardscrabble farmer to cattle baron, giving close attention to lesser-known aspects of his last thirty years. Goodnight came up in the days when much of Texas was free range and open to occupancy by any cattleman brave enough to stake a claim. Hagan shows how Goodnight learned the cattle business and became one of the most famous ranchers of the Southwest. Hagan also presents a clearer picture than ever before of Goodnight's business arrangements and investments, including the financial setbacks of his later life. As entertaining as it is informative, Hagan's account takes readers back to the Palo Duro Canyon and the Staked Plains to share insights into the cattleman's lifeÑriding the range, fighting grass fires, driving cattle to the nearest railheadÑthe very stuff of cowboy legend and lore. This fascinating biography enriches our understanding of a Texas icon. William T. Hagan is retired as Professor of History at the University of Oklahoma. His numerous books include Taking Indian Lands; Quanah Parker, Comanche Chief; and Theodore Roosevelt and Six Friends of the Indian. "Fresh and valuable . . . a modern classic on the father of the Texas Panhandle." ÑDavid Dary, author of The Santa Fe Trail
