Another unique attribute about the state are the vast miles of railroads. Any documents or memorabilia from railroads through Wyoming, Union Pacific in particular, can be a great treasure for collectors. Also, books by explorers before Wyoming became a part of the United States is sure to be part of any collection.
If one is looking for more books on the history of the state, look no further than the Native American tribes within the state that are still present today. Tribes like Lakota, Shoshone, and Cheyenne have rich and deep histories within the State of Wyoming.
