"""The Haunted West is thoughtfully researched and well written, and its organization--critiquing each museum on its own--gives the sense of leading the reader through the center. The authors have done an excellent job of updating their analyses as the museums have updated, while their addition of the unifying themes of 'spirit' and 'haunt' provides a provocative new theoretical lens to the field."" --Elizabeth Weiser, author of Museum Rhetoric: Building Civic Identity in National Spaces"
