Discover what life was like for the pioneers who braved the journey across a wilderness and the Native Americans who were confronted by the newcomers. You can also meet the cowboys who lived their hard, lonely lives driving cattle across vast distances, and the outlaws who chose to live by their guns than by more honest means.
In this book, the atmosphere of the Wild West is vividly captured, with photographs from the times, images from the movies and the real facts. Find out what kind of people went west, how they got there, where they lived and how they earned their livings. There are lots of practical projects, including cooking a cowboy meal and making Native American-style adornments, to give you first-hand experience of this time of excitement and upheaval.
