This is the history of the Omaha Stockyards with interviews of the evolution as the revolution and decline of Central Markets like Omaha-Chicago-St Louis-Fort Worth-Kansas City and others. The book chronicles the movement of the New Big Four to the country where the cattle are, and the streamlining of meat processing to reduce processing labor and transportation. This book recognizes the growing movement from conventional mass production of cattle in feedlots, to customer demand for Grass Fed and Eco-Friendly meat.
