In \u003cem\u003eGhostWest\u003c\/em\u003e, Ann Ronald takes the reader to historical sites where something once happened. Using the metaphor of hauntings, she reflects on how western history, literature, and lore continue to shape our visceral impressions of these sites.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn chapters both lyrical and thoughtful, passionate and humorous, \u003cem\u003eGhostWest\u003c\/em\u003e covers sites in seventeen western states, including the Little Bighorn Battlefield in Montana, Willa Cather's Nebraska prairies, and the Murrah Building bombing site in Oklahoma.
