The American West: People, Place and Ideas

by Suzan Campbell, Kathleen Ash-Milby

The Great American West--a place familiar yet exotic, one that symbolizes the American spirit and character. But what defines the West? The splendidly varied works of the Rockwell Museum of Western Art in Corning, New York, prove that there is not one West, but many. The American West highlights the museum's western and Native American collection--truly the best of the West in the East.

I read this book as part of my training as a docent at the Rockwell Museum. The pictures were beautiful and the narrative was very interesting and informative. I also learned a lot through the bios provided of the artists represented in the collection.
