Description
Throughout his life, Henry Anderson, born in 1891, never lost sight of his dream, which was to own a cattle ranch in Mexico with a beautiful hacienda. From a small farm in rural South Texas to a dusty border town in Arizona, Henry then moved to California, his finances affluent. Throughout the 1920s and '30s, he experienced the glitz and glamour of Hollywood. Unfortunately, his fortune was lost in the Great Depression, and afterwards, he pursued the uncertain life of a prospector for gold in the mountains of Northern Mexico.Product Details
