Notes


A history of Alberta's E.P. Ranch during the forty-three years it was owned by (Prince - King) Edward VIII. The volume examines the acquisition, management, and changing role of the ranch from its purchase in 1919 to its sale in 1962. Evans traces successive phases of the enterprise, including pedigree livestock breeding, the effects of the Great Depression, wartime oil exploration, and later attempts to revive the operation.
