*t<br > VIRGINIA BEACH PUBLIC LIBRARY-DUP<br > IIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIII I II IIIII<br > A18222 960675<br > Preface and Acknowledgments<br > Probably no other type of film has been as durable as the Western. A<br >miquely American art form, since it reflects the pioneering of our country, the<br >Nestern has taken different forms in its three quarters of a century of exist-<br >~ nce on the screen. Few films made the impact that The Great Train Robbery<br >did in 1903 and fewer films have survived as long.<br > The appeal of the Western movie is worldwide and European moviemak-<br >ers have copied the style with a great deal of success. Only a handful of<br >Westerns are being produced in the U.S. now, but the large-scale type of<br >outdoors action film is coming back into popularity.<br > Willie an all-inclusive look at the development of the Western movie from<br >early silent days to the present would take a volume of monumental propor-<br >tions, we hope that this quiz book has covered a lot of the highlights along the<br >trail. We also hope that this has been accomplished in an informative and<br >entertaining way, so that the reader might learn a fact or two as he or she<br >brings back happy memories of Saturday matinees spent with sagebrush her-<br >oes we all remember so well.<br > The author hopes that the reader will get as much fun out of the book as<br > went into its making.
