Incomparable. . . Each of the eight sections is introduced by a resplendent narrative, creating a gigantic literary anthology so successful its title has become the mantra of Montana. After 35 years it remains relevant--a timeless contribution to the literature and the history of Montana.

Synopsis
This book is an anthology of some of the greatest stories and storytellers of the American West. Through eight chapters and over 800 pages, 150 writers present scores of myths, stories, poems, essays, and journals that document Montana?s significant literary tradition. The selections range from pre-white Indian days to the present, and, taken as a whole, they offer a powerful microcosm of the entire western experience. The chapters, each prefaced by an original essay, progress chronologically from myths and tales of the Indian people to accounts of exploration and the fur trade, followed by the mining and stockmen?s frontiers, the agricultural and small town experience, as well as a special chapter on Butte--the richest hill on earth. Contemporary chapters take up the emergence of the modern West in the middle years of the twentieth century as well as the renaissance of western literature in contemporary fiction and poetry. These chapters include many authors who have earned national reputations in fiction, poetry, and criticism, but they also include many younger writers whose careers are just beginning., This book is an anthology of some of the greatest stories and storytellers of the American West.

    Ordered cookbook Friday night. Shipped Saturday morning. Arrived Thursday morning from adjacent state by USPS Bound Printed Matter in good condition. Grey plastic envelope was used (no bubble wrap). Not sure if bent corner was from shipping (see photo). One page had large corner torn off (see photo). Accurate description. Printed invoice included. Still a good value on a used book from a not-for-profit organization. Thanks!

    Excellent transaction. Great comms, excellent pricing; item's condition was better than advertised (used CD). CD was well packaged (very important for a fragile jewel case), and shipped in timely manner. Seller made this sale a positive experience. 5 Stars all the way!

    This is the second copy I bought of this book. The first copy was the wrong book. I sent a picture and they responded with an answer that didn’t match the question so I bought it again. Got the right book 2nd time! Thanks!
