Explore the American wild west cowboy and historical American facts at TheWildWest.org. The American West produced many exciting heroes and
legends. Names like Jesse James & Cole Younger, The Dalton Gang,
Kit Carson and Calamity Jane bring up images of train robberies,
scouting, trapping, and gun-fighting duels. Women, like Annie Oakley,
Belle Star, Willa Cather, Cattle Kate, Helen Hunt Jackson, and Carry
Nation, made a large mark on the Old West as everything from shady
characters to leaders (paving the way for women's rights). Old West Landmarks,
like Tombstone and The Alamo, are tributes to the people like Wyatt
Earp, Bat Masterson, Daniel Boone, and Sam Houston who made those sites
famous. And then there was Samuel Colt who made the American West into
what we know it today just by developing a gun. Please select
