Journey back to another century and visit the untamed American West -- the land of the Gold Rush and home to many Native American tribes. See what life was like in a covered wagon, in a frontier town, or on a cattle ranch. Confront dangerous outlaws and the hardships of living in an unsettled land. Plenty of realistic illustrations, as well as period photographs and paintings, dramatize the gritty truths of the mythic Wild West. A splendid gift for any child fascinated by the stories and legends of this period. Includes a biographical section, a glossary, and an index.

From AudioFile

Jack Lemmon smoothly reads this compact audio history of the American West. Numerous other actors read from diaries and personal journals, injecting life and adding a clearer perspective to the Wild West. Some content reflects the crudeness of this rowdy era before law and order. All parts are clear and distinct, providing enjoyable and easy listening. Authentic music accompanies each tape; parts of it have the scratchy quality of original recordings. The tapes are a fun way to listen and learn, especially for history buffs. P.A.J.
