A Challenge for All: Successfully Trdnsfemncp Wealth and Management on Family Ranches

摘要

I have the honor to know, and to count as friends, a family in South Texas whose grandchildren represent the ninth generation on the same ranch. The A. T. Canales Ranches of Premont, Texas, started as a Spanish land grant in the 1770s. Today this ranch, whose history would fill volumes of "can't put it down" reading, is successfully operating with cattle, horses, wildlife, and minerals. As I interact with them, I can't help but wonder if the ranch's main purpose in 2009 is to provide a glue to hold a diverse modern family together.
