''Whittlings From The West: With Some Account Of Butternut Castle'' is a book written by Lindon Meadows. The book is a collection of short stories and sketches that provide a glimpse into life in the American West during the late 19th century. The stories are set in and around Butternut Castle, a fictional town in the West. The book is divided into several sections, each of which focuses on a different aspect of life in the West. The first section, titled ''Pioneers and Indians'', includes stories about the early settlers and their interactions with the Native American tribes. The second section, ''Cowboys and Outlaws'', features stories about the cowboy lifestyle and the notorious outlaws of the time. The third section, ''Ranch Life'', provides a detailed look at the daily life of ranchers and their families. The fourth section, ''Mining and Logging'', focuses on the industries that were prevalent in the West at the time. The final section, ''Miscellaneous'', includes stories and sketches that do not fit into any of the other categories. Throughout the book, Meadows uses vivid descriptions and colorful characters to bring the West to life. The stories are both entertaining and informative, providing readers with a unique perspective on a fascinating period in American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
