GCSE History Revision Guides
A series of guides to help students revise and learn the essential facts and concepts for GCSE. These guides can be delivered incrementally as the course progresses, at the end of each module of work, or all at once.

Book 3. The American West
This guide covers the period from 1840 to 1895 when the American West was transformed from an area inhabited by the Native Americans ('Indians'), who lived by herding buffalo, to an area controlled by the white settler farmers with the remaining 'Indians' confined to their reservations. Topics covered include the geography of the west, Native American lifestyles, early settlers, Mormons, railroads, cattlemen, homesteaders, law and order, Manifest Destiny and the conflict between 'Indians', settlers and the US government.
