EDITORS OF TIME-LIFE BOOKS WITH TEXT BY GILBERT, BIL. The Trailblazers.
Time-Life Books, New York: 1974. Reprint Edition. The Old West Series. h Hardcover, no dustjacket. Very Good condition.
Not until the mid-nineteenth century did most Americans get their first look at the two million square miles the United State acquired through the Louisiana Purchase of 1803, and then it was through the eyes - and canvases - of a feew bold painters, some of them European. The landscapes they painted, shown in this book, fired imaginations, prompting them at times to add all sorts of embellishments. Yet such was the dramatic variety of the West that as each region opened, explorers found actual scenes surpassing the artists' wildest imaginings. Highly illustrated. Includes an Index.
