About the book
On the Wyoming frontier, innovators have always combined ingenuity and inspiration with hard work to shape the future. Frontier Industrialists – Fifty Years of Innovation at L&H, written by EMMY award-winning journalist, historian and filmmaker Sam Hurst, covers L&H Industrial’s remarkable story. It’s filled with a mix of caution and overconfidence, a fierce drive to succeed, dark moments of self-doubt, stubborn persistence in the face of ridiculous odds, and a strange sort of faith that drives individuals, and men and women working together, to create something that no one thought possible. This is a story of American enterprise.
