Step into the heart of Wyoming’s wild frontier with “Blood on the Open Range: The True Story of the Johnson County War.” In this episode of Way Out West, learn about the legendary conflict between powerful cattle barons and determined small ranchers.
Hear dramatic tales of ambushes, standoffs, and the hard choices that shaped ranching and law in the American West. Saddle up for a timeless story of ambition, betrayal, and resilience. Where the thin line between right and wrong was also as wild as the land itself.
If you're interested in further reading, I suggest the book "The Johnson County War" by Bill O'Neal (available on Amazon).
