"Professor Limerick is a wonderful writer and a model of a modern historian, one who writes about the past for the benefit of teh present but without a trace of whiggishness. The essays in here are never less than good and often magnificent (America rediscovered from the West is a terrific piece, and so is the essay on Mormon ethinicity). If you want to understand why the history of the West matters and why it didn't stop with the "closing of the frontier", this is a book for you. And if you just want to read a witty, trenchant and engaged scholar at the top of her game, it's for you too."
"Really an excellent book with many insights on how we in the west got to the place we are today. Professor Limerick does go off on tangents about her world of academia: the inner workings of how versions of history are brought to the masses."
