Whoever The Storyteller In The Aftermath Of That Encounternative Or Newcomerthe Stories All Soon Revolved Around A Common Theme: The Coming Of The Winds Of Change.Ronda'S Masterful Interpretation Of The Young Republic'S Fascination With The West Is Written With Grace, Narrative Sweep, And A Conviction That History Should, Above All Else, Engage And Inform Us.'This Is A Really Outstanding, Important Work.'Professor John L.
