Industry Reviews "Like its subject matter, 'The West' is gorgeous and grand....As the only history of the West that many people may ever read, Ward's volume is a good gauge of the region as Manifest Destiny or as conquest." Los Angeles Times Book Review - Russell Frank (08/15/1996)
"A vivid account of the American experience, filled with stories of the greed, folly, courage, ambition and hope that still fuel this country." People - Thomas Curwen
