The Wild West was one of the most iconic times in American history, and It was more than just a bunch of gun-slinging cowboys in their ten-gallons enjoying the saloons and riding around on stallions. While there were tons of gun fights, tobacco smoking, and heavy drinking going on, life itself was far from glamorous. In fact, it was far from easy to say the least.
