A true account of the trials of a Canadian family who became owners of the largest cattle ranch in the country - skillfully told by one of the actual owners of her not-to-be-equalled experiences on the ranch.
The Gang Ranch - B.C.'s sprawling and legendary million-acre cattle empire - came under Canadian ownership in 1978. Judy Alsager, one of its owners, takes us on a sincere and moving journey of breathtaking scenic images through the tumultuous times that see the Ranch rise proudly from its previous comatose state to once again become a thriving exciting operation. She shares with us the heartache and desperation of the Alsager family as a bizarre series of events brings the Gang Ranch toppling down without warning, thrusting them into an alien labyrinth of legal and banking malfunctions. This is an honest account of what actually transpired to tear the Alsager family apart, and how the Gang Ranch was wrested away from this family's grasp, resulting in the tragic loss of one of Canada's grandest and most-historic assets.
