br. Il western fu definito da André Bazin "il cinema americano per eccellenza". E sicuramente questo genere è stato un tipico prodotto della cultura americana, di cui ha seguito, rispecchiato e, a volte, anticipato fedelmente gli sviluppi e le trasformazioni, a partire dalla descrizione epica e grandiosa della conquista, lungo i cui mitologici sentieri progresso e barbarie si fronteggiavano incarnati dai cowboy e dagli indiani. Questo percorso evolutivo ha innervato il tessuto della nazione fino ad approdare all'universo crepuscolare e pessimista dei Peckinpah e degli Eastwood, immagine di un West in cui non esistono più eroi: metamorfosi che, osservando le contraddizioni del paese, rende il genere più vicino alla realtà storica e, allo stesso tempo, più in sintonia con un'America alla ricerca di una precisa identità. Attraverso i suoi codici linguistici, la ripetizione degli schemi visivi e l'evoluzione della messa in scena, il western ha esibito la mitologia della società di cui ha cantato le gesta, indirizzando il pubblico verso una lettura compiaciuta dei valori collettivamente condivisi, ma ha anche osservato e registrato attentamente i mutamenti in atto nella nazione, le sue paure, i suoi dubbi. "C'era una volta il western" ci racconta questo cammino: da La grande rapina al treno fino a Gli spietati, da Soldato blu a Balia coi lupi, senza dimenticare il superbo magistero di Sergio Leone.

Roy. 4to., First Edition, with 20 fine full-page tinted plates and an illustration in the text; original pictorial wrappers, front wrapper (only) stained, uncut edges a lightly frayed as often else a remarkably crisp, clean copy. Sir Muirhead Bone (1876-1953) created much of his finest work as Official Artist on the Western Front in WWI. The culmination of this period is his striking series of drawings (over 200 in all) published as 'The Western Front' (1916-17). Issued in ten monthly parts, each number contained 20 plates captioned on the facing page with text by C.E. Montague and prefaced by a short introduction by GHQ (it is believed that the introduction to the first part was penned personally by Douglas Haig). The original parts were later combined and sold as two bound volumes (volume one comprising parts 1-5 and volume two parts 6-10). The parts were sometimes loosely themed, e.g. 'Trench Scenery', 'The Battle of Arras', but whatever the subject the best of his work is quite outstanding. '[Bone] brings the contrasts and the anonynimity of that First World War to life in chalk and pencil. Bone was particularly good at observing vast industrial activity and in showing myriad figures from above, a sort of Piranesi in reverse' 'Houfe' (1978). Copies of the original issues are uncommon, especially in this condition. Enser, p.26.

ill., ril. Tra le foreste a ovest dei Monti Appalachi, un pugno di audaci pionieri guidati dal capitano Daniel Boone ha fondato sulle terre dei Cherokee la colonia ribelle di Transylvania. Allo scoppio della Rivoluzione Americana, le tribù indiane, pagate dagli inglesi, stringono d'assedio i coloni di Fort Boonesborough, tra i quali ritroviamo Abbie e suo marito Alain con i loro figli. Nick, prigioniero in Canada, fugge dalla fortezza di Québec, mentre Daniel è con Okhwari nel lontano Missouri. Dopo "Mohawk River", continua la saga storica della famiglia Chapman, scritta da Mauro Boselli e disegnata da Angelo Stano. Un omaggio alla letteratura classica d'avventura, una cronaca della nascita di una nazione: crudeltà, eroismi, battaglie, agguati e tradimenti tra i fiumi e le foreste della Vecchia Frontiera.

Sulla sua strada, però, si affacciano pericoli e sorprese di ogni genere. Un affresco storico, un'avventura dal sapore classico, scritta da Mauro Boselli e tagliata su misura per le matite di Angelo Stano.
