Cowboy Presidents: The Frontier Myth and U.S. Politics since 1990

Regular price $21.95

The intersection of myth, identity, and politics is at the heart of David A. Smith's Cowboy Presidents. He examines four twentieth-century presidents—Theodore Roosevelt, Lyndon B. Johnson, Ronald Reagan, and George W. Bush—and how they incorporated Turnerian concepts of individualism, self-reliance, liberty, and democracy during their time in office.
