Westerners

Candid and Historic Interviews

This volume of candid interviews contains a sampling of hundreds conducted by Jean Henry Mead over a thirty-year period. Among them are photographers, artists, writers, ranchers, politicians, ranch hands, bunkhouse publisher, country singer, museum curator, and the nation's oldest talk show host.

The West is their common denominator. Whether they wrote about the West, painted or photographed it; represented it in congress, ranched it, herded cows and sheep across it; originated or migrated here is unimportant. They have all been Extraordinary Westerners. Among those interviewed are Louis L'Amour, Chris LeDoux, A.B. Guthrie, Jr.; Jeanne Williams, Dick Cheney, Bill Cody, Will Henry and a host of others.
