The first transcontinental railroads brought fashionable easterners to the American West. In the 1880s and 1890s they traveled in sumptuous "palace cars" and stayed at luxury hotels. Westerners with an eye on promotion turned to what they took to be their own traditions. After 1900 a wilder West became popular; the Indian was rediscovered, and the cowboy returned to the saddle, if only during fiestas and rodeos. Increasing numbers of tourists headed for "natural curiosities" such as the sequoias of Yosemite and the geysers of Yellowstone. Then mass-produced automobiles and cheap air, rail, and bus fares changed the face of western tourism forever. In Search of the Golden West offers splendid old-time photographs and descriptions of nabobs, hucksters, naturalists, dudes, realtors, and motorists--all those who sought the reality and created the myth of the Golden West.Binding Type: Paperback

Amazing Sunscreen! Large Bottle and Pump is Great!
Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Sport Lotion SPF 50, Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Sport Lotion SPF 50
I’ve been buying this Banana Boat sunscreen with SPF50 for a while and I wish I found it years ago because it makes putting on sunscreen so easy. Been buying it for family members as well! The pump is amazing—I keep one in my bathroom and one in my bedroom so I never forget. It’s a really big bottle so it lasts a long time, and it spreads super easily with no white cast at all, even on my face. The scent is really light and neutral too, which I love.
It just melts into your skin, doesn’t feel sticky, and works for everything—face, hands, arms, legs. It’s one of those products you actually end up using every day because it’s so easy and convenient. I keep repurchasing it for a reason! Highly recommend!

My AmazonFinds/ SPF 50 Sunscreen
Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Sport Lotion SPF 50, Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Sport Lotion SPF 50
I’ve been using this Banana Boat Sport SPF 50 sunscreen and I really like it. It goes on smoothly and absorbs quickly without feeling too greasy or heavy on the skin. I also like that it’s water and sweat resistant, which makes it perfect for outdoor activities or beach days.
It provides strong sun protection and I feel confident using it when I’m out in the sun for long periods. The scent is light and not overpowering. Overall, it’s a reliable sunscreen that I would definitely buy again.

Very good sunscreen, advice from a pale-skinned person
Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Sport Lotion SPF 50
I'm Scottish by descent, and so is my skin. This stuff works well, is pleasant, not greasy and seems to hang on despite kiteboarding, surfing, cycling, whatever. Pleasant smell, good dispenser.
