Riding Along The Salt Grass Trail

The Salt Grass Trail Ride is the "Daddy-Of-Em-All", started in 1952, as the kick-off event for the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo, the biggest rodeo event inthe United States. It reenacts the trail ride of pioneer cattlemen and their herds to Houston from the rich salt grass pastures on the Texas Gulf Coast. More than 6,000 riders participate today, in many trail rides from all over Texas. This book "Riding Along the Salt Grass Trail" traces the rich history and current participants along their route and overnight stops as the wagons and riders converge for the grand rodeo parade through downtown Houston.
