Dee Brown does an excellent job of telling history through the eyes of the people who made up the early West. So many delightful stories as well as historial facts, from Billy the Kid to the range wars; the Western Indians to the making of Western towns; and from the hardships as well as the entertainment on the Western front. A very entertaining book. The author covers an amazing amount of territory. Really puts it together in just the right mix. Highly recommend this book to anyone who likes history, as Dee Brown covers the cultures, conflicts, and conquests of the West.
