Weaponry I-Search
The advancement of weaponry, during the mid-late 1800s, greatly affected the out come and success of the American campaign to move West. America, during her move West, had superior weapons if compared to her Indian counterparts.
Before my search began, I had only little knowledge of how guns affected the move westward. Most of what I knew were lies, which Hollywood had conjured up about Indians and cowboys, as imagined this valuable knowledge didn’t help me very much.

Once at home I quickly turned on my home computer and began to look through the files stored on a 1996 Grolier Encyclopedia, and a Webster Encyclopedia CD as I started to word, in my mind, the elaboration upon my thesis statement.
