But women have always played an integral part in the cattle industry, often working without recognition or support to meet the challenge of the frontier. Ranching Women in Southern Alberta examines the rhythms, routines, and realities of women's lives on family ranches. As these ranches replaced the large-scale cattle operations that once covered thousands of acres, women were called upon to ensure not only the ongoing economic viability of their ranches, but also the social harmony of their families and communities. At the same time, ranching women enjoyed personal freedoms and opportunities unknown to their urban and European contemporaries. The great-granddaughter of pioneer ranchers, Rachel Herbert brings a unique insight to the stories of these brave and talented women who carved a role for themselves and their daughters during the dawn of the family ranch. Rachel Herbert raises grass-fed beef and chases her two free-range kids at historic Trail's End Ranch near Nanton, Alberta. Herbert's look at the real life of ranch women from about 1874 into the 1940s is an eye-opener. A much-needed addition to the study of rural women in the West. A carefully researched and thoughtful history of ranching women. Herbert delivers a radical redress of ranching history and grants girls hope for a more equitable future. This is the first book to recognize the women who played a crucial role in establishing the family ranch in the foothills of southern Alberta.
