Reel West
Published by the University of New Mexico Press
Reel West is a unique series of short, neatly packaged volumes exploring individual Western films across the whole history of the canon, from early and classic Westerns to revisionist and spaghetti Westerns. The series considers the many themes and variations that have accrued over more than a century of this most American of film styles. Intended for general readers as well as for classroom use, these brief books will offer smart, incisive examinations of the aesthetic, cultural, experiential, and personal meaning and legacy of the films they discuss and will provide strong arguments for their importance—all filtered through the consciousness of writers of distinction from within the disciplines of film criticism, journalism, and literature.
