OverviewThis work includes drawings by Remington, the renowned Western artist, with notes and verses by Owen Wister and others. Wister writes in the Introduction: No artist until Remington has undertaken to draw so clearly the history of the people. He has pictured the red man as no one else. He has told his tragedy completely. Remington has recorded the white man who encountered him-recorded this man also in every stage from dignity to sordid squalor. Pioneers, trappers, cowboys, miners, prospectors, gamblers, bandits-the whole motley rout goes ineffaceably into Remington's pages. And, finally, he has not forgotten nature herself. The mystery of the untouched plains and the awe of the unscaled mountain heights have been set down by him not only truthfully, but with potent feeling and imagination.
