Description

The second volume in The Great Western Pictures series covers some 400 Westerns, from the classics to the bottom of the barrel. The new book includes titles released since 1976 and adds many films from earlier decades not included in the base volume. In addition to feature films, the book includes the Western as presented in serials, TV movies, and foreign films; unlike the first book, this one takes an in-depth look at many features from the B Western genre.
