Remington, Frederic [Sackrider] (1861–1909), sculptor, illustrator, and painter, chose for his different media the subjects of soldiers, Indians, and cowboys, frequently in lively action. His bronze statuettes and frequently reproduced canvases are of more historical than artistic value. In addition to being a popular magazine illustrator, he was the author of several books displaying the same temper as his graphic art. These include
Pony Tracks (1895),
Crooked Trails (1898), and
The Way of an Indian (1906).
My Dear Wister (1972) collects his correspondence with Owen Wister.
