The story of the cattle barons has often overshadowed the
experiences of the common cowboy on whose labor the ranchers'
wealth was built. Malcolm McLeod recorded the life of privation and
danger of the late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century
mixed-blood cowboy. He worked for cattle owners across Montana and
in southern British Columbia and eastern Washington. Born in
Washington Territory in 1870 of Scotch, French Canadian, and
Chippewa Indian heritage, McLeod traveled countless miles over the
years. But home remained the Flathead Indian Reservation in western
Montana, where he was enrolled and allotted land. McLeod worked for
Charles Allard, one of the largest stock owners on the Flathead
Reservation. He herded Allard's famous buffalo herd and even rode
buffalo for Allard's short-lived Wild West Show in 1893. In later
years McLeod tried his hand at farming, at a harness and shoe
repair shop, and in the taxi business, but these enterprises never
provided the excitement and danger of his cowboy work. It was the
labor and experiences of men like McLeod that built the modern
Flathead Reservation community and economy.
