It played a key role in the settlement of the west and quickly became the center of a booming industry. Fortunes were made in the production and sale of barbed wire, and the industry grew tremendously in only a few decades. There were few inventions as crucial to the development of America’s history as barbed wire.. DISCLAIMER & USAGE.

Once . the ranges were fenced, many cowboys were out of work. Cattle no longer endlessly wandered on the open range. The Wild West shows gave them a place to show their skills and pick up some pay. Soon rodeos or cowboy contests became part of Western county fairs. Contestants traveled from one competition to another. Some cowboys became rodeo stars, and, later, movie stars. Today rodeo cowboys are professional athletes who compete for a living.. virtue of the Transfer of Functions National Heritage Order 1992 SI 1992/1311 Art 31 Sch 1 Part 1 superseding earlier amendments General powers of TrusteesGeneral powers of TrusteesGeneral powers of The history of animals and humans as seen through barbed wire.In this original and controversial book, historian and philosopher Reviel Netz explores the development of a controlling and pain-inducing technology--barbed wire. Surveying its development from 1874 to 1954, Netz describes its use to control cattle during the colonization of the American West and to control people in Nazi concentration camps and the Russian Gulag. Physical control over space was no longer symbolic after 1874.This is a history told from the perspective of its victims. With vivid examples of the interconnectedness of humans, animals, and the environment, this dramatic account of barbed wire presents modern history through the lens of motion being prevented. Drawing together the history of humans and animals, Netz delivers a compelling new perspective on the issues of colonialism, capitalism, warfare, globalization, violence, and suffering. Theoretically sophisticated but written with a broad readership in mind, Barbed Wire calls for nothing less than a reconsideration of modernity. Before the mid-1800s, much of the American West was a vastexpanse of open plains. Native tribes followed buffalo herdsunimpeded for hundreds of miles, cowboys ran cattle whereverwater and grass led them, and the cattleman s Law of the OpenRange ruled. All this changed when settlers pouring into the Westunder the Homestead Act of 1862 brought with them the Easternfarmer s concept of fencing in farms. With the invention and massproduction of barbed wire in the 1870s, it soon became possiblefor homesteaders to fence off millions of acres of what was onceopen range. But barbed wire threatened the livelihood of thecattlemen who depended on unfenced grasslands, and a clash ofcultures was inevitable.In a style that will capture the interest of adult and teen readers,Barbed Wire: The Fence That Changed the West reveals the surprisinglycritical role the invention of barbed wire played in the settling ofAmerica. From the legal battles over barbed wire patents to thebrutal fencing wars that erupted on the frontier and the ultimateend of the open range, author Joanne Liu tells the fascinating storyof how a simple twist of wire transformed a country s landscapeand ushered in a new way of life.
