Scott Kleeb

Mr. Kleeb s project explores the internationalization of American cattle ranching during the late 19th through the 20th century. His research will show that American ranching, the icon of the American experience, was and is anything but a purely American project. In fact, much of the global financial involvement in cattle ranches originated in Great Britain. Ultimately, Mr. Kleeb s research will show that American internal expansion during this period depended heavily on global capital investment. While at Cambridge, Mr. Kleeb will make trips to London, to research the Companies Registration Office, Bush House, Stock Exchange Records, and the Public Records Office.
