    Extractions: Owen Wister Author of The Virginian Owen Wister (1860-1938) was born in Pennsylvania but-inspired by several trips to Wyoming-became a leading chronicler of the West. The Virginian Set in the vast Wyoming territory, The Virginian (1902) captures both the grandeur and the loneliness of the frontier experience, brilliantly evoking the tension between the romantic freedom of the great, untamed landscape and mankind's deep-seated desire for community and social order. Wister brings to life the honesty and rough justice that ruled the range and the civilizing influence of determined women in frontier settlements that imposed a sense of society on an unruly population. For Wister, the West tested a man's true worth. Click on cover to read the first chapter online! Mass Market Paperback Reissue edition (July 1987)

    Extractions: American writer whose stories helped to establish the cowboy as an archetypical, individualist hero. Wister and his predecessor James Fenimore Cooper (1789-1851) created the basic Western myths and themes later popularised by such writers as Zane Grey and Max Brand. Before Wister, Theodore Roosevelt published his book The Winning of the West (1889-1896) to make clear the meaning of the land beyond the Mississippi to the whole country, and Mark Twain and Bret Harte wrote their stories about frontiersmen. Although Westerns are normally set in the 19th-century, they are not considered simple historical novels, but special kind of moral tales, in which the protagonist, usually male, must defend his personal values in a violent confrontation with socially destructive forces. "He was evidently howling the remarkable strain of yells that the cow-punchers invented as the speech best understood by cows - "Oi-ee, yah, whoop-yah-ye-ee, oooo-oop, oop, oop-oop-oop-oop-yah-hee!" But that gives you no idea of it. Alphabets are worse than photographs. It is not the lungs of every man that can produce these effects, not even from armies, eagles, or mules were such sounds ever heard on earth. The cowpuncher invented them. And when the last cow-puncher is laid to rest (if that, alas! have not already befallen) the yells will be forever gone."

34. Stanwick's Business - Ayn Rand & Objectivism
    Owen Wister (18601938) is said to have written the first Western. His novelThe Virginian (1902) was made into several movies and a television series.

    Extractions: (First published on TDO February 21, 2000) "Going to the shore?" he resounded at me, and told me, without waiting, that Salamis Grove was his point. "Best place in Jersey!" he declared heartily. "Best surf, best hotels, best sport. I've tried all the others—Charlemagne Beach, Sorrento Park, Sneak-box River, Squankawan, Shakespeare-by-the-Sea—the whole bunch of 'em, and give me Salamis. Where have you been lately?" he now asked, and again saved me the effort of speech by informing me that he had been to Scranton. "Yes. Been to Scranton. Getting material for big railroad wreck story—hot stuff!" Stanwick too frequently employs the distressing idiom of the hour. "Are you going to the shore? Salamis Park, in my opinion—"; but you need not hear Stanwick's further opinion of this spot. Indeed, I did not hear it myself. Stanwick (as you will doubtless have noticed) has the jovial monologue habit. Every fifty or sixty words he drops you a question, and goes immediately on with the monologue. Thus is created for him the illusion that he is hearing all your news, while at the same time he is spared the wear and tear of listening to you. But the jovial monologue habit spares you, also; I didn't learn Stanwick's opinions any more than he learned my destination; I merely said, "Ah-ha" and "Um-um" at him now and then, and thought of something else. He would soon ask me if I had read his new story, and I would say yes, because he would never stop long enough to find out the truth.

"Oh! said she, to whom he was transparent. "Well, if you think it is late." She busied herself with the harvest. Her red handkerchief and strands of her black hair had fallen loosely together from her head to her shoulders. The red peppers were heaped thick, hiding the whole roof, and she stopped among them, levelling them to a ripening layer with buckskin gloves (for peppers sting sharper than mustard), sorting and turning them in the bright sun. The youth looked at her most wistfully. "It is not precisely late yet," said he. "To be sure not," she assented, consulting the sky. "We have still three hours of day." He brightened as he lounged against a water barrel. "But after night it is so very dark on the trail to camp," he sincerely objected.
