Peer reviewedRothwell, Jennifer Truran – Social Education, 1997
Considers the use of cultural images and symbols of Native Americans to reflect, interpret, and justify the westward expansion of the United States. Seldom overtly racist, paintings and lithographs of the time often presented a benign and romantic vision of the West. Includes suggested teaching ideas. (MJP)
