I love history. I especially love all the history, the facts, legends, myths, and all the fun associated with life in the American Old West.

If you share that love, I call your attention to "Life in the Old West," a relatively new website. The site combines a look at what "real life" was like in the American West, with a nice collection of interesting topics and available online auctions of Western American Memorabilia. They have stories about gunfighters, the railroads and their impact on westward expansion, television and movie Western heroes -- and a post today about Conestoga wagons and the role they played in western expansion.

Take a look around. If you're at all interested in the Old West, you'll love the site and hang out there often.
