The Wild West is a hard time to pin down precisely. The mythological Wild West, that era of cowboys and outlaws like Buffalo Bill and Wyatt Earp, really fits into the period of time between 1850 and 1920. Of course, the American Frontier was going strong well before this and you're really looking at the expansion westward which started in the 17th century before America was even America. This is the time period when many of these little legendary towns were founded. Some of them went the way of the cowboys who inhabited them, like Tombstone, Arizona, only living on in legend and tourist guides. Others grew to become major cities like San Francisco, California, and Billings, Montana. But whether they survived the Wild West unscathed or rolled off into the sunset like a tumbleweed on the breeze, there were a lot of towns that help shaped what we know today as the Wild West. These were the places that were at the edge of the frontier, where people tried to carve out a living in some of the hardest circumstances. Life was a heck of a lot different back then and so was America.
If you have a passion for the history of the Wild West, then let's see if you can place where some of the most significant towns from the time might have been on a map. Take the quiz and see!
