Portraits Of The Old West follows the success of Portraits of Native Americans with a series of striking images from the American West in its heyday, primarily from the end of the nineteenth century. The fascination with the exploits of those intrepid adventurers who, for better or worse, shaped America has made enduring marks upon the culture of America. Here is a photographic look at the famous, the infamous, the completely unknown heroes, heroines, and villains who braved new frontiers and made real the Manifest Destiny that moved the States from sea towards that other shining sea. Some of the figures included are the James brothers, Wyatt Earp, Bat Masterson, and many more. -- An authoritative look at the American West. -- Includes archival photographs from state historical societies and private collections. -- Among those included are pony soldiers, trailblazers, and cattlemen.

From our earliest history, Americans have had an uneasy affection for our outlaws, especially those from the romantic period of the Old West. Whether it is the fearlessness and freedom they represent or some other psychological need, we often overlook the misdeeds of these people in our fascination with them. This book is about their photographs. Some of the mythology is perpetuated in the captions and some new truths put forth as well. Viewing these photographs allows us to look these fellows in the eye and assess their character—something we probably wouldn’t have been allowed to do in real life and live to tell about it. Historic Photos of Outlaws of the Old West includes nearly 200 photographs, reproduced in vivid black-and-white, with captions and introductions by writer and historian Larry Johnson. Here are the most legendary outlaws and many of the less infamous characters whose lives found a place in the story of the American West.

This work is an explanation of the role of the nineteenth-century photographer as a conscious historian of the West - a recorder of events, people, and places as surely as they were the diary-keepers, journalists, and writers. Like them, he exercised choice in what he recorded; unlike them, he documented aspects of reality that we can know in no other way. Photographers as documenters are too often casually, even carelessly, regarded. Photography And The Old West is intended to convey as clearly as possible how people learned to use a camera and became camera-wise in an individual way; how tools and materials affected photographic seeing; and what a few of the many photographers hoped to express. This work is not a comprehensive survey but rather a selective look at some of the imagery of the West that a few conscious photographers produced.
