Overview

This book offers an evocative photographic journey capturing the heart and soul of the American West. The American West of the late nineteenth century blazed off the pages of pulp novels as the Wild West - a land of gunslingers and outlaws, cowboys and Indians. The myth continued in films, television, and even theme parks. But what became of the West as the modern world grew ever closer, and does it still exist? These are just some of the questions that award-winning photographer Carl Corey set out to answer as he took his camera and set out on the road to capture the heart and soul of the American West - its people. Featuring 100 stunning full-colour and black and white photographs, Rancher shows that the fiercely independent spirit of the Old West is not only surviving but thriving.
