Something In The Soil

Legacies And Reckonings in the New West

"For the pathbreaking historian Patricia Nelson Limerick, history is an active presence in the West today, layers of collevtive memory that are, quite literally, "something in the soil." Combiting irreverence for conventional pieties with a grasp of the American West's long history as a magnet for dreams of a better life, these wide-ranging essays offer an artful glimpse into the West's dramatic past and contentious present."
