Abstract

Among the iconic figures that emerged from the American West, the cowboy proved as irresistible as he was durable. And no wonder--with stories by Ned Buntline, Bret Harte, and others that began appearing during the 1870s, increasing numbers of readers found themselves drawn to adventures set in that vast region.
