By Allen Eyles.

From the moment the cinema first began to tell stories, the exploits of the Old West have had a favoured place with film-makers and audiences alike. This unique reference book covers seventy years of Western films, from "The Great Train Robbery" (1903) to recent releases, through listings of the stars, directors, supporting players, writers, producers, composers, cameramen, stuntmen and others who have helped make the Western such a prolific, enjoyable and artistically stimulating form of cinema. There are also numerous entries for famous Western authors recording the film versions of their work and more than thirty listings of the celebrated real-life Westerners with a record of the films in which they were seen and the players who portrayed them.

Critic Philip French, in his new book "Westerns," described the first edition of this book (published in 1967 and long out of print) as "an accurate and fairly comprehensive index, invaluable to the student of the genre. A revised edition is overdue, and would be welcome."

This is that revised edition, now far more comprehensive and with a new and improved range of illustrations, stoutly bound to withstand heavy usage.
