This Is A New Release Of The Original 1921 Edition.

The story of Arkansas, as told here, is a story of the dramatic impact of a migrating southern and eastern culture upon a roaring western frontier. Fletcher recognizes the fun and humor long associated with Arkansas--comic anecdote, boisterous wit, tall tale, heavy satire--but he also tells the hard historic facts, and the result is something new in frontier epic.
Originally published in 1947.

1921. Eugene Henri Paul Gauguin was a French stockbroker who painted as a hobby. He was associated with Pissarro and Cezanne and in 1883, Gauguin began to devote himself to painting. He developed the synthetism style, and emphasized the conceptual method of representation, while using pure color and bold lines. While in his studios in Tahiti and the Marquesas Islands, he sent back wonderfully colorful and brilliant canvases. To this day, Gauguin is considered the foremost post-Impressionist French painter.
