Back When Westerns Were Still Fun

Submitted by Greg Burns on Sat, 07/03/2010 - 2:14pm

I was among the first generation of television kids and I remember with fondness watching those early westerns like Roy Rogers & Dale Evans, The Lone Ranger, Hopalong Cassidy, Gunsmoke, and others. But even before television the western was alive and well on radio. Many of the shows we watched and loved were orignally radio programs, and very popular ones at that, which is why they were transitioned to the new (at that time) t.v. format.

Happy Birthday and Make a Wish!

What are these people celebrating anyway? Not only is it our 22nd Birhtday Party; we are celebrating the totally new and awesome Evelyn Meador Branch Library coming your way in 2011.  We're making a wish for the construction to stay on track and the weather to stay fair so the library can open as soon as possible.

A Rider On the Storm

Jason Manning, another of our Texas writers of western fiction, may not be a household name like Larry McMurtry, but he certainly deserves to be better known among western fans. With several series and numerous stand-alone novels under his belt, his work reflects a keen knowledge of the conflicts of the western frontier in the 19th century, as well as a thorough understanding of the motivations of human nature.
