PRODUKTBESCHREIBUNG
by Ed Hulse (Author)
Best-selling author Zane Grey wrote nearly 60 novels set in the American West, and a substantial number of them were adapted for the silver screen-some of them up to five times. With a total estimated audience of 250 million people, the former dentist and world-class fisherman entranced readers and viewers for decades with his highly romanticized tales of the frontier and the colorful pioneers who settled it. Some 111 feature-length films and two cliffhanger serials were adapted directly from Grey's stories, and Filming the West of Zane Grey covers each one in detail. Casts, credits, plot synopses, contemporaneous reviews, release dates, running times, alternate titles-just about everything you'd want or need to know about Zane Grey movies is here. And it's all tied together with an extensive, analytical, bio-historical essay by film historian Ed Hulse.
