Leatherbound, LIKE NEW. Appears unread. 266pp ; 22cm. . . . . . A classic work that offers a firsthand account of life in the American West through both vivid storytelling and remarkable illustrations. Frederic Remington, noted American painter, illustrator, sculptor, and writer, draws upon his experiences traveling with U.S. military troops and interacting with cowboys, Native Americans, and frontiersmen during the late nineteenth century. The book brings Remington?s journeys to life as he recounts his adventures in the *bad lands,* his participation in military scouting expeditions, and his observations of the rapidly changing West. Across a series of linked stories and essays, Remington paints a picture of rugged landscapes and the hardships, camaraderie, and daily life faced by those who lived and worked along the frontier. Not only does Remington capture the spirit of exploration and conflict, but through his illustrations and detailed writing, he provides a cultural and historical record of a pivotal era. The 2008 Palladium Press edition is designed especially for collectors, featuring fine leather binding and high-quality production in keeping with the standards of the Frontier Classics Library series, making it both a beautiful object and an important piece of American historical literature.
