The Goodnight-Loving Trail ran from Young County, Texas, southwest to Horsehead Crossing on the Pecos River, up the Pecos to Fort Sumner, New Mexico, and on north to Colorado and Cheyenne Wyoming. In the spring and early summer of 1866 Charles Goodnight and Oliver Loving drove their first herd of longhorn cattle over the Butterfield Overland Mail route from near Fort Belknap via the Middle Concho River to Horsehead Crossing. Thus began one of the most intriguing cattle trails. With this account by Larry W Jones, the old west lives again with historical photos, images and details not found in other books.
