Questions to Address for Critique of Samuel Western’s
Pushed Off the Mountain, Sold Down the River

  1. How would you summarize Samuel Western’s essential, basic
    argument about the state of Wyoming and what it means to be a
    Wyomingite? Based on your own experience in this state, are the
    author’s assertions accurate and fair? In what areas are his
    observations and arguments valid? In what way(s) might he be
    off the mark? What might he be missing from his critique of
    Wyoming history and culture?
  2. What advantages might Western have as an “outsider” (even
    though he’s resided in the state for more than 30 years) in his
    observations about Wyoming? What might a Wyoming native
    learn from the perspectives of someone coming from somewhere
    else? What might Western himself be able to learn from a “long-
    timer?”
  3. In what ways are political, economic and social conditions in the
    state different since the book was first published in 2002? What
    conditions have remained the same?
  4. Western refers to a number of myths regarding Wyoming history
    and self-image. What are they? What are their consequences,
    according to the author? In what ways are they significant from
    your own perspective?
  5. What are the Wyoming values that you believe are the most
    important and consequential? Why? How? How well does
    Western treat them in his book?
  6. In the last chapter of the book, Western describes six ideologies
    that stem from Wyoming mythology. From your own experience
    in this state, which of these assertions have the most impact and
    consequence on Wyoming government, politics, political culture,
    and economy? Why? What other ideologies could you add to this
    list?
  7. Western concludes by suggesting eight ways that “Wyoming can
    build community and have more influence over its future.” Which
    of these assertions, from your perspective, is the most doable?
    How likely is the state going to be able to improve the conditions
    that have characterized it during its history? What other
    suggestions could you offer regarding Wyoming’s future
    prospects?
