Gunsight Pass - How Oil Came to the Cattle Country and Brought a New West by William MacLeod Raine audiobook.

Genre: history

Gunsight Pass: How Oil Came to the Cattle Country and Brought a New West plunges listeners into the dust and drama of a changing frontier, where the timeless rhythm of cattle drives collides with the thunder of men and machines chasing black gold. William MacLeod Raine paints a widescreen portrait of a place and a people on the cusp of modernity—rugged ranchers, hard-bitten oilmen, small‑town families, and fortune-seekers whose ambitions reshape landscapes and loyalties. Through vivid description, sharp dialogue, and richly drawn characters, the story traces the high stakes of discovery: the temptation of sudden wealth, the courtroom fights and gunplay that follow, the lost ways of an older West, and the new social order born from pipelines and derricks. Perfect for audiobook listeners, Raine’s narrative voice evokes prairie skies, creaking windmills, and the roar of engines, while the cast of characters—stoic cowboys, persuasive promoters, principled matriarchs, and conniving speculators—brings every moral clash and personal gamble to life. Whether you’re drawn to frontier adventure, social history, or the human cost of progress, this immersive tale captures the tumult and hope of an era when oil transformed the cattle country and, with it, the American West itself.
