About This Item
Island Press, 2004. Softcover. Like New. 6x0x9. Stewart Udall argues that the overblown and ahistorical emphasis on a wild west has warped our sense of the past. For the mythical Wild West, Stewart Udall substitutes a compelling description of an Old West, the West before the arrival of the railroads, which was the home place for those he calls the wagon people, the men and women who came, camped, settled, and stayed. He offers a portrait of the West not as a government creation or a corporate colony or a Hollywood set for feckless gold seekers and gun fighters but as primarily a land where brave and hardy people came to make a new life with their families.
