American West Collection includes three classic primary texts from the Old West:

My Life Among the Indians by George Catlin. Prolific artist-author-explorer-entrepreneur George Catlin’s incredible one-man tour across the Americas is a record of countless forgotten tribes. This remarkable travelogue, from one of the first experts on Native Americans, includes many of Catlin’s original portraits.

The Life of John Wesley Hardin by John Wesley Hardin. Although not as famous as Wyatt Earp or Butch Cassidy, Wes Hardin was the deadliest shooter of them all with 27 confirmed murders. He was also the only Old West outlaw to write an autobiography. This is his memoirs, penned from prison in the 1880s, embellished most likely but still an informative and exciting read. Crack-shot Hardin takes us from his early days causing trouble as a preacher’s son to the mid to late 1870s when he was the most wanted man in America, a fugitive pursued halfway across the country by the indomitable Texas Rangers.

Days on the Road - Crossing the Plains in 1865 by Sarah Raymond Herndon. A complete pioneer diary from one who made the arduous trek west in a covered wagon train, Herndon’s narrative is a vivid, immersive experience, as though one were right there beside her in the prairie schooner.
