| Description: |
By the author of "Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee", this work portrays life in the American West from 1840 to the turn of the century. It interweaves stories of native Americans, ranchers and settlers, profiling figures such as Geronimo, Billy the Kid and Wyatt Earp. |
| Synopsis: |
"The American West" centers on three subjects: Native Americans, settlers, and ranchers. Dee Brown re-creates these groups struggles for their place in this new landscape and illuminates the history of the old West in a single volume, filled with maps and vintage photographs. In his spirited telling of this national saga, Brown demonstrates once again his abilities as a master storyteller and as an entertaining popular historian. |
