The pages are clean, crisp, unmarked and uncreased. The dust jacket is in new condition with no discernible wear.

I knew comparatively little about the American West just what I remember from my early childhood at the tail end of the Cowboys and Indians boom which sort of petered out in the early 1970s. However this shows how much raw material the writers and film-makers had to use and how in some ways what they produced wasn't as far-fetched as I used to think. This book is long enough to totally immerse yourself in, well written, comprehensive, and informative in its detail. It covers just about every angle of the subject. As others have said one of the books where you feel slightly bereft when it's finally finished. Now I just need something similar on the Indian Wars and their protagonists - something like this which is neutral and fair when it talks about the Indians and the settlers.."; 6.25 X 1.5 X 9.25 inches; 528 pages .

About Dr. Bookman - All Books Tightly Packaged in Cardboard

We have an eclectic array of used and out of print books for you in our inventory. Service is key to our relationship with you. You get \"Old School\" service with Dr. Bookman. We can\'t look at each other in the eye, shake each others hand, or walk into the shop the next day if we\'re disatisfied. I understand that vulnerability. You are purchasing a product sight unseen. That means I must be honest with you about exactly what you are buying. You might find my descriptions more detailed than most others, but when purchasing online, I want you to know exactly what you\'re buying. I don\'t want you to feel surprised when you open the box. And by the way, almost all of our books are shipped in cardboard packaging designed just for books. That means you get it the way it left here.
