the West, western U.S., mostly west of the Great Plains(中央大平原). Virtually every part of the United States except the Eastern Seaboard has been “the West” at some point in American history, linked in popular imagination(迁移) with the last frontier(边远地区) of American settlement(移民). But especially it is that vast stretch of plains, mountains, and deserts west of the Mississippi(密西西比) that has loomed(显得) so large in American folklore(民间传说), a region of cowboys, Indians, covered wagons(马车), outlaws(逃犯), prospectors(探矿者), and a whole society operating just outside the law.
The story is set in the early 1900s, near the end of America’s Westward Expansion(西进运动). During the 19th century, more than 1.6 million square kilometers of land west of the Mississippi River was acquired by the Us Westward government. This led to a widespread migration(迁移) west, referred to as Westward Expansion. A variety of factors contributed to(造成) Westward Expansion, including population growth and economic(经济的) opportunities.
