Book Description

EMMA BARNES WAS THE MOST INTERESTING BRIDE CANDIDATE SUNSHINE GAP, WYOMING, HAD EVER SEEN! But no man was a match for the feisty spitfire.

So Emma tried not to look…. But Cal staged a stare-down. Emma's very presence proved he never could have traded passion for comfort. And now he would return the favor—by showing Emma that a gal who took they West the way she did could surely take the love of a lifetime too…. Hearts of Wyoming: Rugged and wild, the McBride family has love to share…and Wyoming weddings are on their minds!

Book Description

From High Noon to Unforgiven, the "A" Western represents the pinnacle of Western filmmaking. More intellectual, ambitious, and time-consuming than the readily produced "B" or serial Westerns, these films rely on hundreds of talented artists. This comprehensive reference work provides biographies and Western filmographies for nearly 1,000 men and women who have contributed to at least three "A" Westerns. These contributors are arranged by their role in film production. Cinematographers, composers, actors, actresses, and directors receive complete biographical treatment; writers whose work was used in at least two Westerns are also featured. An appendix lists well-known actors who have appeared in either one or two "A" Westerns, as specified.

Book Description

From 1947 through 1963, the merged studios of Universal and International produced mostly highly entertaining westerns that ranged from classics like Winchester '73 to forgettable films better left unmade. Entries on the 114 Universal-International westerns of the period are collected here. While other films may have contained western elements, only films that truly fit the genre are included. Films are arranged alphabetically by title, and each entry includes release date, alternate title, cast, credits, songs, location of filming, source if the film was an adaptation, running time, plot synopsis, commentary from the author and from the actors and directors, and representative excerpts from contemporary reviews. Also included are tag lines used in the original advertising for each film. An introduction to the book provides details on the Universal-International merger and a history of the studios' productions.
