On offer is a collection of 26 hardback books from The Old West series and The Chroniclers by Keith Wheeler, published by Time Life Books of New York from 1976 onwards. This substantial set explores the history, people and myths of the American West through richly illustrated volumes written and edited by respected historians and writers of the period.

Time Life Books became well known in the mid to late 20th century for producing authoritative, visually engaging history series, combining scholarly research with high quality photography and illustration. The Old West series is regarded as one of their most successful, covering subjects such as pioneers, gunfighters, Native American tribes, frontier life and westward expansion. The Chroniclers provides broader historical context through contemporary accounts and interpretation.

All volumes are hardbound with decorative illustrated covers. The books appear largely unread, though some show minor shelf wear, light scuffing and occasional creasing to covers. Some gilt titles show fading, consistent with age and storage. Overall, this is a well preserved and visually impressive collection.

A comprehensive and attractive set of Time Life history books with strong reference, display and collecting appeal.
