A powerful collection of stories, memoirs, songs, paintings, drawings, and photographs, The West: A Treasury of Art and Literatures offers a panoramic overview and a glorious celebration of America's wilderness, the region that most reflects our hopes, inspires our vision, and stirs our imagination.
Nowhere has the extraordinary power of this region, perhaps the oldest and most visionary place in our national history, been so magnificently documented than in these words and images. We hear a range of powerful voices beginning with the West's first residents, the Native Americans, and continuing with such writers as Lewis and Clark, Mark Twain, Willa Cather, Zane Grey, and Theodore Roosevelt. Also included are over 200 images and works by George Catlin, Frederick Remington, N. C. Wyeth, and Georgia O'Keeffe. From early Native Americans, to cowboys, miners, and pioneers, The West: A Treasury of Art and Literature captures an era that is definitively American.
