Description: Ray Hugh Garvey was all realist when assessing a situation - a man of vision when it came to plotting his course. Ray started as a liberal arts student at Washburn College -switching to law for a tuition advantage - in Colby he changed from legal work to real estate were them was more profit - using the land to grow a crop while looking for a buyer. The early years set a pattern of many successes in farming, in building in oil drilling and exploration, but most important a chain of grain elevators from Kansas into Colorado and then on to North Dakota.And then came the New Deal which Garvey operated under. This is an illuminating case history for students of economics and a field trip for the social historians. this book is a portrait of a complex man, whose personal life and business accomplishments are a challenge and an inspiration to readers.
