In 14 separate pieces he discusses the works of such venerated Western authors as Zane Grey, Max Brand, Walt Coburn, Clarence E. Mulford, and Paul S. Powers. He documents the first and early appearances on film of such legendary characters as Zorro, Hopalong Cassidy, The Lone Ranger, Red Ryder, and Whistling Dan Barry. And he examines motion pictures featuring such popular Western stars as Tom Mix, Roy Rogers, William Boyd, Randolph Scott, and George O'Brien. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhile not pretending to be a comprehensive narrative history of the entire genre, this book covers a lengthy span of time and a considerable amount of ground.
