This is an encyclopaedic reference devoted to the subject of cowboys, cowgirls, and the old west - including its portrayal on TV and in film in modern times. Organized as an encyclopaedia "Cowboys and the Old West" comprises over 1000 entries on the legends, the places, the films, the musicals, the cowboys, the cowgirls, and the frontiers-men of the wild west. From cattle branding and rodeos to saloons and showdowns, from the fictional Lone Ranger to modern day cowboys, this compendium of the American wild west covers everything you ever wanted to know - and a great deal more besides. The legends, the characters, the history, the tall tales and the true tales, the anecdotes, the TV shows, the movies, the terminology are covered from Calamity Jane to Little House On the Prairie, and from Dead Man's Hand to Judge Roy Bean.
