Red Fenwick's West: Yesterday And Today is a book written by Robert W. Red Fenwick that provides a comprehensive overview of the American West. The book is divided into two parts, the first part focuses on the history of the West, while the second part provides a contemporary perspective on the region. In the first part, Fenwick takes the reader on a journey through the West's rich history, starting with the Native American tribes that inhabited the region long before the arrival of Europeans. He then delves into the Spanish conquest, the fur trade, and the California Gold Rush. Fenwick also covers the cowboy era, the railroad boom, and the settlement of the West. The second part of the book provides a contemporary perspective on the West, exploring its modern-day industries, culture, and way of life. Fenwick discusses the impact of technology on the region, the rise of tourism, and the challenges facing the West in the 21st century. He also provides insights into the unique character of the West, including its rugged landscapes, independent spirit, and diverse population. Overall, Red Fenwick's West: Yesterday And Today is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in the history, culture, and contemporary issues of the American West. Fenwick's engaging writing style, combined with his extensive knowledge of the region, make this book a must-read for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of this iconic part of America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
