Exploring the mythic West, the book delves into the interplay of travel, film, and frontiers, revealing how popular culture shapes tourism and the constructed imagination of this region. It highlights paradoxes such as the West as both an evocative frontier and a boundary between civilization and wilderness. Through an analysis of films, literature, and diverse locations like festivals and national parks, it offers fresh insights into the complex relationship between these themes and their impact on perceptions of the West.
