Industrial Cowboys: Miller & Lux and the Transformation of the Far West, 1850-1920
David Igler
Few industrial enterprises left a more enduring imprint on the American West than Miller & Lux, a vast meatpacking conglomerate started by two San Francisco butchers in 1858. This book examines how Henry Miller and Charles Lux, two German immigrants, consolidated the West's most extensive land and water rights, and swayed legislatures and courts.
