yuck
This book was as terrible as the odor of the wild wild west. I found the majority of his conclusions unsubstanciated. I would recommend that no one involved in the education profession consult this book for anything other than a good laugh...

Very thorough survey of TV Westerns
This is a very impressive and scholarly survey (over 600 pages) of every TV Western program ever aired. The author even has footnote citations for his sources by chapter(!). The footnotes are very useful for discovering further sources of information. The more popular series have a chapter devoted only to them, such as "The Wild Wild West". There are 28 pages on "Bonanza", and it's not just the same old info--the author goes into Pernell Roberts' dissatisfaction with the series and even spends a page on Hop Sing. I found this book to be the best source of information about "The Big Valley" as it covers the series for 15 pages. Hey you prospective authors out there, how about a book on "The Big Valley"?
