About This Item
From the front dust jacket flap: "Frederic Remington loved the West. Seeing it for the first time, the exuberant lad of nineteen lamented, "I knew the wild riders and the vacant land were about to vanish forever, and the more I considered the subject the bigger the Forever loomed.' So, he began to sketch."
