"THE WEST" Companion Book To Ken Burns PBS Series 400+ Photos/Illus., Etc.

Good to very good condition with only light wear to the soft cover corners. No wear inside.

This is the companion book to the stunning PBS TV series from Stephen Ives and Ken Burns. The book features over 400 illustrations. Beginning with the arrival of the first Europeans and ends well into the 20th century, author Ward provides a vivid view of the turbulent history of the region.
Drawing upon hundreds of letters, diaries, memoirs, and journals as well as the latest scholarship, THE WEST chronicles the lives of the explorers, soldiers, Indian warriors, settlers, railroad builders and gaudy showmen. Coronado, Custer, Jesse James, Chief Joseph, Brigham Young and Buffalo Bill are all here. So are many others - the Chinese ditchdigger, the rich Mexican landowner, a 49er from Chile, a Texas cowboy born in Britain, a woman missionary to the Indians who loathed the West, and many more.
