Welcome to the website about the American West.
It is best viewed as a whole screen.
The website is updated and increased regularly.
I receive very little feedback. I am currently reviewing the relative importance of the various sections, Unless I receive feedback to the contrary I propose to concentrate mainly on films, non fiction, myth and history since these are my main areas of interest. I am currently working on History sections covering the Dawes Act, the Indian schools and the termination policy of the 1950s.If you would like me to let you know when I update the website just send me an e mail.The following sections are the latest to be added, just click to access them directly.
