Demonstrates that the Canadian frontier was less restrained, law-abiding and insulated from death and violence than to be believed. This work aims to challenge the views that Canadian ranching society was a microcosm of the 'Old World', arguing that the greatest influence on ranchers and settlers was the need to deal with the frontier environment.

Warren M. Elofson is professor of history, University of Calgary. He has farmed and ranched in Alberta all his life and is the author of The Rockingham Connection and The Second Founding of the Whig Party.
