"The exploration and
settlement of the West was one of the most important events in our American
history. So much living and learning went in our westward expansion that
we sometimes forget that the whole process took only about 75 years. Never
in the history of mankind has any nation grown to greatness in so short a
time.
Come with us and relive
our pioneer days. Meet the great figures in our western history - men and
women of courage, foresight, and daring who risked everything and changed
the face of this continent forever. You'll meet settlers, gunfighters,
cowboys, Indians, trailblazers, and soldiers - the good, the bad and the
ugly. Exciting illustrations and fast-moving text keep young readers
enthralled while teaching valuable lessons in history. Maps and
chronological time charts make the action easy to follow." |
