Inspired by an actual strike in the 1880s when cowboys then working for the large ranches in Texas’ Canadian River region stopped working to protest employment conditions imposed by the big-money Eastern ownership syndicates. It is an age-old story pitting an individual mindset against a corporate mentality.
