(The West Series) In the 1850s, as more American pioneers poured west, they brought with them the nation's oldest most divisive issue--slavery--and the rough frontier would supply the sparks the would ignite the Civil War. Indians would be dragged into "the white man's war," while the besieged Mormons would commit the worst massacre of innocent pioneers in American history. And as the bitter Civil War drew to a close, celebrated Union heros such as George Armstrong Custer and William Tecumseh Sherman would use the tactics which had defeated the South against the Native Americans of the West.

Custer's "Last stand" would also become, in effect, the last stand of the Sioux as a free people. In Utah, the Mormon patriarch Brigham Young would be forced to choose between saving his church or sacrificing his spiritual son. Farther west, Chief Joseph of the Nez Perce would find himself helping to lead one of the most extraordinary military campaigns in American history.

But its promises would be trampled in the snow and blood of Wounded Knee. In place of the great Native American cultures which once dominated the Plains was a new culture, epitomized by the Oklahoma Land Rush, in which 100,000 eager settlers lined up for a mad dash to stake out a farm and a future.

Russell. Although these two views of the West are endlessly appealing, we cannot continue to base our decisions on historic perceptions of the West that has been swept away by the passage of time. Landscape is the story of Larry Zabel’s quest to create a new image of today’s West. How, he wonders, can the visions of Bierstadt and Russell be fused? Or, can the visions come together in some kind of common ground? Can he bring these two historic views of the American West to the same canvas?” Missoula, MT: Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks. Dist.
