Calling the Brands tells the story of the, "range detectives,"
"stock detectives," and "inspectors," who usually worked completely
alone, courageously capturing or killing livestock rustlers in
order to assure the survivability of the ranchers. The detectives
and inspectors had to be proficient in "calling the brands," which
meant being able to read a brand and identify its owner. While most
western lawmen's titles and many of them are familiar, less well
known are the various titles and names of those who protected the
cattle industry from being carted away lock, stock and barrel by
the unscrupulous and who helped shaped the West as we know it.
