The authorhasconsulted allavailable source materialpertaining toranching in SouthernAlberta.Nevertheless, the approachusedisboundto provoke controversy. Thisscholarly analysis contributes immensely toourknowledge ofranching. However,ranchingwasalsoprevalentin a multitudeof otherareasof the Prairiesduring and after the Territorial Period.From I9I 4 to I922, for example,there wasas muchland held in the form of grazingleases in Saskatchewan asthere wasin Alberta.'The RanchingFrontierin Southern Alberta1874-I924' wouldbea moreappropriatetitle. Admittedly, theareasouthof Calgaryandthesouthwest cornerof Assiniboia (Saskatchewan after i9o5) constitutedthe bulk of the ranchingfrontier. Based on the title and content of this volume, the reader is led to conclude thattheranchingfrontierin thePrairieWestwaslimitedtosouthern Alberta.
