Wild West

Wild West Review

Wild West magazine has been around for some time. Every issue presents several articles, reviews, and editorial departments dealing with a wide range of events and (mostly) people of the American West. Often, there are stories on subjects that have not been as widely covered as some, such as American-British confrontations in the "fifty-four forty or fight" era.

Articles are popular, rather than scholarly, even though many are written by university professors. Most have suggestions for further reading for the benefit of people who want to dig into their subjects more deeply. Illustrations are generally good, although they often are old favorites (e.g, the old Billy the Kid daguerrotype). The book review section tends to cover recent productions of the main university presses, along with memoirs and histories by non-scholarly writers and memoirists.

Wild West offers enjoyable light reading for anyone interested in the age.
