Cloth. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. This work is one volume in the series "The Living History Library." It is a different approach to America's past, using original sources--letters, diaries, documents, maps, songs, speeches and illustrations on the period--to tell the history of the United States in the words of the people who shaped it. In this work, the author draws from a rich reservoir of the little-known memoirs and cowboys' autobiographies, to tell us something fresh and significant about these people and the historical era that produced them. The book contains photographs, illustrations, music, song notes, a bibliography, and an index. This HARDCOVER copy is clean and solid. SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR, inscribed on the front pastedown. Signed by Author(s). Seller Inventory # 016993
