"The American West: Myth and Reality" - Michael Wallis

Michael Wallis is the author of The Real Wild West: The 101 Ranch and the Creation of the American West.

Wallis's lecture is part of Hillsdale College's CCA seminar on The American West. See more from this seminar at https://www.hillsdale.edu/live/cca-iii-american-west/

The history of the Old West, dating roughly from the beginning of the Lewis and Clark expedition in 1804 to the Wounded Knee massacre in 1890, was but the length of one long lifetime. The debate over how to understand America’s western expansion has already eclipsed it in time. This third CCA of the 2016-2017 academic year will consider both the history and the debate.
