Abstract

"More Than Running Cattle: The Mallet Ranch of the South Plains" is a book by M. Scott Sosebee that tells the story of the Mallet Ranch in Texas. The focus is on the philanthropic daughters of the ranch's founder, David DeVitt, and their contributions to the region. The book includes historical photographs and family snapshots, as well as photographs of the ranch and the projects funded by the DeVitt sisters' foundations. Despite its "coffee table" feel, the book is captivating and explores the complex dynamics of the DeVitt family. It also highlights the significant philanthropic legacy of the sisters.
