The exploration, settlement, exploitation, and conflicts of the 'American Old West' form a unique tapestry of events, which has been celebrated by Americans and foreigners alike-in art, music, dance, novels, magazines, short stories, poetry, theater, video games, movies, radio, television, song, and oral tradition. Many historians of the American West have written about the mythic West; the west of western literature, art and of people's shared memories. But Frederic Paxson's book takes us through the era when the American frontier was undergoing a massive transformation and when the decades old struggles of the Native Americans were finally beginning to make a dent in the old white American history...
Frederic Logan Paxson was a Pulitzer Prize winning American historian and an authority on the American frontier.
