Sir, This paper says that the land you're standing on is mine. You're going to have to move!
And the other man replied: Well... this gun says otherwise!

In this episode of Trampled Underfoot Podcast, we share the story of the 1800s, San Elizario Salt Wars, in El Paso, Texas. For decades the townsfolk of San Elizario had been mining the near by salt flats, then taking the wagon loads to market. But that was until a wealthy investor came to town one day. Soon after, a series of events would unfold that became one of the wildest chapters of the American Wild West!

The episode continues with conversations about the importance of libraries, even though we live in the computer age. The discussion evolves into collections held in private hands such as the Prince museum, and much more. Check it out!
