While A New Look at the Old West recounts, through the lively anecdotes of generations of Nibletts and Hataways, a vivid personal account of the Old West, more importantly it tells the story of Gary Niblett. We come to understand something of the humble beginnings—the hopes and dreams—of a boy growing up on the Texas and New Mexico prairies. We learn of his deep devotion to his mother and the inspiration that she gave  him to follow his convictions to become and artist. This book inquires into the style of "genre art" and discusses the art form in contemporary American art, along with Niblett's role in American art.
