Stories from Montana's Enduring Frontier: Exploring an Untamed Legacy (American Chronicles) - Softcover
Synopsis
At the turn of the twentieth century, Montana started emerging from its rugged past. Permanent towns and cities, powered by mining, tourism, and trade, replaced ramshackle outposts. Yet Montana's frontier endured, both in remote pockets and in the wider cultural imagination. The frontier thus played a continuing role in Montanans' lives, often in fascinating ways. Author John Clayton has written extensively on these shifts in Montana history, chronicling the breadth of the frontier's legacy with this diverse collection of stories. Explore the remnants of Montana's frontier through stories of the Little Bighorn Battlefield, the Beartooth Highway, and the lost mining camp of Swift Current--and through legendary characters such as Charlie Russell, Haydie Yates, and "Liver-eating" Johnston.

Review
The book chronicles how Montana's frontier image endured, even as permanent towns powered by new industries sprang up. Clayton examines that shifts in the state's legacy with a diverse collection of stories, on such subjects as the Little Bighorn Battlefield, the Beartooth Highway, and the lost mining camp of Swift Current and such legendary characters as Charlie Russell, Haydie Yates, and "Liver-eating" Johnston. --Billings Gazette
