Wild West, The (World Of) by Peter Harrison

Children Book – Discover what life was like for the pioneers who braved the journey across the 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 rather than by more honest means. The atmosphere of the Wild West is vividly captured, with photographs from the times, images from the movies and real facts. Book includes step by step projects inspired by the Wild West. Stimulating reading for 8 to 12 year olds at home and school. (paper back)
