This discussion of typical furnishings in ranch houses of western
Dakota or eastern Montana during the last two decades of the
nineteenth century was completed to fulfill the requirements of RSP
H-1 from Theodore Roosevelt National Memorial Park. This unit of
the National Park System on the western edge of North Dakota honors
the activities of Theodore Roosevelt in that part of the west
between 1883 and 1899. Roosevelt's active involvement in Dakota
ranching lasted less than five years, but he visited his Elkhorn
Ranch nearly every autumn on hunting trips. Roosevelt last saw the
land where "the romance of my life began" in 1903. The spell of the
North Dakota Badlands along the Little Missouri caught Roosevelt
during his first extended stay in the region. The Badlands of the
Little Missouri River possessed curious fantastic beauty and savage
desolation in Roosevelt's eyes when he saw them in 1884.
