Bibliography

8/27/2010

For those off you wanting to read beyond the extracts we will be focussing on in lessons, here is a general bibliography for the American West. You can get most of these books either for free from the library or for a small fee from Abe Books. Please do not feel it is necessary to buy any however. It might be worth just choosing a few to dip into to get a broader feel for a fascinating topic. If you want some specific recommendations see myself or Miss Devey!!
