The Old West In Fiction by Irwin R. Blacker is a comprehensive literary analysis of the genre of Western fiction. The book examines the history and development of Western fiction, from its origins in dime novels and pulp magazines to its status as a respected literary genre. Blacker explores the themes and motifs that are common in Western fiction, such as the frontier, the cowboy, and the conflict between law and order and lawlessness. He also examines the role of Western fiction in shaping American culture and identity. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of American literature or the cultural significance of the Western genre.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
