Traces the ownership of the Bell Ranch, beginning in the early 1800s with Pablo Montoya, who was first granted title by the Mexican government to the 655,468 acres comprising the original ranch, to 1973. George Ellis managed the Bell Ranch for almost a quarter century and was one of but six men who served as general manager in its 150-year history. Donald Ornduff, well known cattle editor, writer and researcher sets the historical stage for the story, and Robert Lougheed provides the illustrations.
