Discover the fascinating history of the Wild West...
FreeBONUSInside!
The term "Wild West" conjures images known the world over-of outlaws in dusty towns, lawmen and lone cowboys, six-shooters blazing in tense gunfights, creaking stagecoaches, and sleepy, one-horse towns baking under a relentless sun. It carries with it a certain code, the so-called "Code of the West," that whispers of personal honor, frontier justice, and a hard-edged sense of right and wrong. But in truth, these images are stitched together more from the reels of countless movies than from any historical fact.
The real history of the Wild West is both more complex and more interesting. This was a time when the United States was changing from a mainly agrarian nation to one of the world's leading industrial producers. Americans were moving in vast numbers from farms and ranches to growing cities. New technology was changing everything. These changes led to a nostalgia for an older, simpler way of life, which the Wild West-in all its grit and glory-seemed to represent.
This is the story of the people, places, and events associated with the dramatic growth and equally rapid decline of the Wild West. It's also the story of how myth and legend have shaped our understanding of this time to create an idealized perception of the American frontier. This is the real story of the Wild West.
