“Finally he said that among men there was no such communion as among horses and the notion that men can be understood at all was probably an illusion.” -Cormac McCarthy. All The Pretty Horses
The heart of American mythology rides with the cowboy. On the New Frontier, gunslingers chase their fortunes, outlaws clash with lawmen, and wild mustangs thunder beneath mystical western skies. This contested land bears witness to the rise of an American colossus, one that imperiled both the native and the foreigner alike.
Here, America was forged in blood, sweat, and gunpowder. Here, it found both its glory and its grief, its manifest destiny, and its eternal sins.
Ride with me across the New Frontier, and uncover the mythological origins of the American spirit.
