Differentiated book- It has a historical context with research of the time-This book contains a historical context, where past events or the study and narration of these events are examined. The historical context refers to the circumstances and incidents surrounding an event. This context is formed by everything that, in some way, influences the event when it happens. A fact is always tied to its time: that is, to its characteristics. Therefore, when analyzing events that took place tens, hundreds or thousands of years ago, it is essential to know the historical context to understand them. Otherwise, we would be analyzing and judging what happened in a totally different era with a current perspectiveThe Virginian, A Horseman of the Plains, is a 1902 novel by American author Owen Wister (1860-1938), set in Wyoming. It describes the life of a cowboy on a cattle ranch and is considered the first true fictional western ever written, aside from tales and novels by pulp tell me, although modern scholars debate this. The Virginian paved the way for many more westerns by authors like Zane Gray, Louis L'Amour, and many others. The novel was adapted from several short stories published in Harper's Magazine and the Saturday Evening Post between November 1893 and May 1902
