Con Price

Born in 1869 and later known as Con Price, he is best remembered for Memories of Old Montana, a memoir drawn from his years as a cowboy in the American West. The book has been preserved by Project Gutenberg, where it is presented as his account of frontier life.

Price's story is closely tied to Montana ranching country and to the people who shaped that era. Descriptions of his work highlight his firsthand experiences as a cowboy and note his connections to well-known western figures, including Charlie Russell.

Archival records also show that his papers were preserved by the University of Nevada, Reno, suggesting lasting historical interest in his life and recollections. He died in 1958, leaving behind writing valued not just as storytelling, but as a personal window into the cattle-country West.
