Wyman Meinzer and Henry Chappell have collaborated on a number of stunning books, including 6666: Portrait of a Texas Ranch (2004); Working Dogs of Texas (2009); and Under One Fence: The Waggoner Ranch Legacy (2010).
The duo’s most recent collaboration, The Spirit of Wyoming: Wagonhound Land and Livestock Co.focuses on Wyoming’s historic Wagonhound Land & Livestock Co. Owned by Arthur Nicholas, who debuted on the 2013 Land Report 100, Wagonhound Land & Livestock Co. spans over 200,000 acres and produces some of the top Quarter Horses and Red Angus cattle in the nation. The ranch is also renowned for its stewardship of some of the most stunning and ecologically diverse ranchland in North America.
The Spirit of Wyoming: Wagonhound Land and Livestock Co. offers readers a unique opportunity to experience the beauty and legacy of the Wagonhound. From the cowboys who still earn their living on horseback, working cattle in much the same manner as their ancestors did over 100 years ago, to Wagonhound’s innovative philosophy that has made it one of the top players in today’s highly competitive cattle and Quarter Horse markets, Chappell and Meinzer have created another masterpiece.
