The book delves into the African American experience in the West through diverse media, highlighting underrepresented voices and works. It analyzes writings by Rose Gordon and explores memoirs of influential musicians and performers. The study includes Oscar Micheaux's films, black-cast westerns, and significant yet overlooked moments from the golden age of western television. Additionally, it examines contemporary narratives by Percival Everett and modern films like Django Unchained, offering a comprehensive view of the cultural and historical impact of African Americans in western genres.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Algebraic Methodology and Software Engineering, AMAST'97, held in Sydney, Australia, in December 1997. The volume presents 48 revised full papers selected from an unusually high number of submissions. One of the outstanding features of AMAST is its mix of serious mathematical development of formal methods in software engineering with practical concerns, tools, case studies, and industrial development. The volume addresses all current aspects of formal methods in software engineering and programming methodology, with a certain emphasis on algebraic and logical foundations.
