Imagining the American West through Film and Tourism - Warwick Frost - Bog

Bag om Imagining the American West through Film and Tourism

This book explores this imagining of a mythic West through three key themes, travel, film and frontiers to offer new insight into how the imagination of the West and popular culture has influencing the construction of tourism. By doing it examines the paradoxes of the constructed imagination of the West such as it being an evocative frontier, constructed as a boundary zone between civilisation and wilderness, even between order and lawlessness.
