The Montana Homeseeker provides a narrative history of Pierre Wiebaux–a contemporary of Theodore Roosevelt and the Marquis de Mores–and the W Ranch–located on the border between Montana and North Dakota. While Wibaux made a fortune on cattle, the ranch is now a prime investment location for sheep herders and those in the wool trade, and a company is being organized for investors who would like to get into the business. Maps, photographs, and figures accompany the advertising material, illustrating the area and aspects of the sheep industry.
