TRUE TALES OF THE OLD WEST(ISBN=9780307236388) 英文原版 fb2 pdf azw3 网盘 rtf 免费 下载 txt

　　Much has been written about the west—most of it clouded by

exaggeration and fabrication. Since 1953, True West magazine has

been devoted to celebrating the West’s true colors, giving the men

and women who settled there accurate voices, exploring every

triumph and tragedy of their time—and exposing every vice and

virtue.

True Tales and Amazing Legends of the Old West commemorates these

unforgettable cowboys, Indians, and city slickers through a mix of

classic histories and brand-new narratives, all illustrated with

photographs—many reproduced here for the first time—of the people

and places that gave rise to America’s Western mythology.

With twenty-six stories that blend fact with folklore, this

collection abounds with accounts of the famous and the infamous,

including Sacagawea, Wild Bill Hickok, Pancho Villa, Butch Cassidy

and the Sundance Kid, Davy Crockett, and Wyatt Earp. Also here are

lesser-known figures whose stories were pivotal to shaping the

culture of the era, such as European conquistador Francisco

Coronado, rancher “Black Billy” Hill, and fearless lawman Orlando

“Rube” Robbins. Other tales recount the wide open plains,

lawlessness, drama, mayhem, and promise embodied in the Old

West.

Whether you’re a history buff, an Old West devotee, or simply

someone who is fascinated by the characters of America’s early

years, these timeless tales and photographs epitomize the legendary

spirit of what it meant to settle the West.
