  Episode One: From the beginning of time, the West has been a land of myth. The original Native American inhabitants linked their creation stories to the majestic mountains, searing deserts, and silent forests. To Europeans such as Cabeza de Vaca and Coronado, the West was a "wilderness" to be conquered--filled with boundless treasure, souls to save or defeat, and new horizons to explore. Special features include The Making of the West, Trivia On the West, and Interactive Maps.
