Classic Western Stories -- For more than a hundred years, the vivid stories of the American West have thrilled and enthralled audiences both young and old, and captured the imaginations of generations. Here are the adventures of outlaws and gunslingers, explorers and settlers, lumberjacks and cowboys. Here are legends—Pecos Bill, Paul Bunyan, Calamity Jane—and trailblazers—Lewis and Clark, Daniel Boone. Each will take the reader to the edge of a vast territory, to a time when the wilderness was just outside our doors. Illustrated by such renowned artists as N.C. Wyeth, Winslow Homer, and Frederic Remington, these stirring stories and songs are sure to absorb and entertain, introducing to readers of all ages the spirit and lasting power of the American frontier.

Cooper Edens, with Starsnap Studio, owns one of the largest collections of vintage picture books in the world. His other books include Sea Stories, The Big Book of Little, and Tales from the Brothers Grimm. He lives in Seattle.
