Download or read book When the Smoke Clears written by Tom Rizzo and published by . This book was released on 2017-07-19 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much of the legend and the lore of the Old West involve gunslingers and gunfights. Most of the people who populated the new American frontier in the 19th century owned guns and used them to hunt and to protect themselves and their families.Despite the general perception, gunfights didn't occur on a regular basis. In fact, many communities implemented tough gun control laws. Tombstone, Dodge City, Wichita, and Deadwood banned anyone but law enforcement officials from carrying guns. Citizens and visitors had to check their guns at a central location until they left town.The focus of When the Smoke Clears falls on more than two-dozen Old West gunfights that attracted the most attention from historians and other chroniclers. The names of most of the gunslingers will no doubt ring familiar. Despite the lack of name recognition for the others, you'll find they were equally adept when it came to squeezing the triggers of their six-shooters.

Download or read book The WPA Guide to Kansas written by Federal Writers' Project and published by Trinity University Press. This book was released on 2013-10-31 with total page 538 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 1930s in the United States, the Works Progress Administration developed the Federal Writers’ Project to support writers and artists while making a national effort to document the country’s shared history and culture. The American Guide series consists of individual guides to each of the states. Little-known authors—many of whom would later become celebrated literary figures—were commissioned to write these important books. John Steinbeck, Saul Bellow, Zora Neale Hurston, and Ralph Ellison are among the more than 6,000 writers, editors, historians, and researchers who documented this celebration of local histories. Photographs, drawings, driving tours, detailed descriptions of towns, and rich cultural details exhibit each state’s unique flavor. America’s Heartland is well depicted in this WPA Guide to Kansas, originally published in 1939. Kansas, also nicknamed the “Sunflower State” because of its rich agricultural roots and the “Jayhawker State” because of its distinct role in the American Civil War, has a diverse and extensive history.
