Description The American West is as varied in its inhabitants as in its landforms.

Yet what has come to stand for Western writing is the myth of the wagon train and the lone gunman.

In the Portable Wester Reader, William Kittredge has assembled stories, poems, essays, and excerpts that transcend the Western myth and explore the vast range of Western experience.

With selections from more than seventy authors, and an introduction and headnotes by William Kittredge.

The Portable Western Reader redefines the Western literary landscape.
