”Beef State” follows the first cattle drives into Nebraska and traces the impact of the industry on Nebraska through the state’s settlement and homesteading eras, and the rise of cattle barons. The story continues with the evolution of the modern ranch, following the growth of the beef industry through two world wars, the blizzard of 1949 and the rise and fall of the Omaha Stockyards.
