| 5 of 5 Stars I Love this magazine. Read it from cover to cover as soon as I get the next issue. I've always loved the West, its history and the people who made it what it became today. I have been out West only once in my Adult life. The people who live West of the Mississippi River and farther West are so different in character, personality, way of life, thoughts and beliefs, than people who live in the Eastern part of our country. They are truly the Heart of America and all it stands for. I envy anyone who has had the opportunity to work, live and be a part of this truly unique part of our country. The beauty of the Mountains, the different ways of life they live and the so totally different dangers, weather and landscape they deal with on a daily basis. Their constant struggle to maintain their way of life and the hard work put into it. Generations of same families who survived the perils they faced from the beginning and even yet today, they live and work hard to keep it as their ancestors did. They contibute so much to all of America.
Wild West magazine truly gives all Americans the TRUTH about the people who went west during the 19th Century. The cruel, greedy, punishment of all the Native American Tribes and how our Government lied to them and treated them, what they did to them to achieve their ultimate goal.. to rid Native American's of their very existance and imprision them on worthless pieces of land called Reservations. It was pure genocide for all Native American Tribes. Even today they live in uncalled for poverty. Thanks to our Government officials on all levels.
Thank you Wild West magazine for giving Americans the Truth about all the colorful, good and bad, people who shaped and made our Western United States what it is today.
