Summary
The literature of the old west is very old, but stories from the region only began to appear after the civil war, as the short story emerged as a major literary form and the west emerged as a separate, distinctly… American culture. This collection brings together fifty of the best stories of the old west, by some of America's finest writers, including Bret Harte, Stephen Crane, Jack London and Mark Twain. 1994.
