Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0786703768, Paperback)

From the first frontiersmen to the last gunslingers, Lewis boldly and vividly depicts the whole sweep of the American West--the pioneers, the cattle barons, the coming of the lawmen, and the Plains Indians' tragic demise, along with the legends of Sitting Bull, Doc Holiday, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Crazy Horse, and Custer.
