Book Descriptions:
The book is nicely illustrated with black-and-white drawings and vintage photographs. The photographs, in particular, help capture the flavor and essence of the Old West, from the image of hunters posing with their kill of a grizzly bear to a close up of one of the saddles used by the riders of the pony express. Looking through some of these old photographs I could almost smell the dusty leather and the horse sweat that left it stained. Some of the images are touching; others are gruesome. Together, they paint a picture of rugged individualism garnished with frequent personal tragedy. One photograph, in particular, touches me deeply. It is that of the frozen corpse of Chief Big Foot, killed during the massacre at Wounded Knee. -- Oversize, hardcover with book jacket in VERY GOOD condition. Fully illustrated.
