Description:

This sweeping tale captures the essence of Texas on a staggering scale as it chronicles the life and times of cattleman Jordan "Bick" Benedict, his naive young society wife, Leslie, and three generations of land-rich sons. A sensational story of power, love, cattle barons, and oil tycoons, *Giant* was the basis of the classic film starring James Dean, Elizabeth Taylor, and Rock Hudson.
