Television Westerns Episode Guide


This huge volume from Harris M. Lentz III covers all United States TV Western Series from 1949-1996.

180 series in all are covered where we get network, stars and a brief plot synopsis for every single episode of a series. Keep in mind these are non-critical episode synopses of the thumbnail capsule variety and not of the in-depth criticism kind. But that is a small quibble when you realize the monumental amount of information within these covers.

It’s allowed me to check-off episodes of old favorites as I renew my acquaintance [The Loner & The Westerner come to mind] and to find a few undiscovered gems that were totally off my radar [my ignorance of Robert Culp’s easy charm in Trackdown, for example.]

If you like TV Westerns, this volume is well-nigh indispensable.
