When Buffalo Bill's Wild West show traveled to Paris in 1889, the New York Times reported that the exhibition would be "managed to suit French ideas." But where had those "French ideas" of the American west come from? And how had they, in turn, shaped the notions of "cowboys and Indiand" that captivated the French imagination during the Gilded Age? In Transnational Frontiers, Emily C. Burns maps the complex din-de-sie'cle cultural exchanges that revealed, defined, and altered images of the American West. 231 pages including index, hard cover.
