Summary
The first scholarly study of ethnicity in Wyoming appeared in 1977 under the title of Peopling the High Plains: Wyoming's European Heritage. The book represents a major development in Wyoming historiography and gave Wyoming a place in immigration history. Its essays vary in style, methodology, and perspective, but the book provided a starting point for further work. More important the settlement of Wyoming is now viewed as part of the continuum of ethnicity on the Great Plains and Rocky Mountain West. The monographs include: Country Squires and Laborers, British Immigrants in Wyoming by John C. Paige; Dream and Fulfillment, Germans in Wyoming by Donald Hodgson and Vivien Hills. The Italian Experience in Wyoming by David Kathka; The Basques in Wyoming by David A.
