Circle the Wagons! - Gregory F. Michno - Bog

- Attacks on Wagon Trains in History and Hollywood Films

Bag om Circle the Wagons!

It's a cinematic image as familiar as John Wayne's face: a wagon train circling as a defensive maneuver against Indian attacks. This book examines actual and fictional wagon-train battles and compares them for realism. It also describes how fledgling Hollywood portrayed the concept of westward migration but, as the evolving industry became more accurate in historical detail, how filmmakers then lost sight of the big picture.
