Description

Welcome to the new 1001 Stories From the Old West.. Here we offer hand-picked accounts from diaries, historical documents, autobiographies, books of the time period, and historians to bring you the American frontier story directly from the people who lived it. You'll hear actual accounts of Indian battles, pioneer struggles, outlaws, cowboys and Indians, lawmen, and the men and women who took the chance and moved west, many by wagon train, to a largely uncharted and wild territory. Go west, young man, are the words often attributed to Horace Greeley, American author and newspaper editor, but there was more to that quote. He wrote "Washington is not a place to live in- the rents are high, the food is bad, and the morals are deplorable. Go west, young man, go west, and grow up with the country.
We invite you to go west with us to another world, another time, another place- and see if you have what it takes to survive and thrive in a world that was much simpler than today's- yet demanded much more of you. Time to mount up-1001 Stories From the Old West is waiting for you.

Have Gun Will Travel was a popular American Western television series that aired on CBS from 1957 through 1963. It was the #4 show in the Nielsen ratings in its first year, and #3 for the next three years. It was one of the few television shows to spawn a successful radio version. The radio series debuted on November 23, 1958. The show followed the adventures of Paladin, a gentleman-turned-gunfighter played by John Dehner on radio, who preferred to settle problems without violence, yet, when forced to fight, excelled. Paladin lived in the Carlton Hotel in San Francisco, where he dressed in semi-formal wear, ate gourmet food, and attended opera. In fact, many who initially met him mistook him for a dandy from the East. When working, he dressed in black, used calling cards and wore a holster which carried characteristic chess knight emblems, and carried a derringer under his belt. The knight symbol is of course in reference to his name — possibly a nickname or working name — and his occupation as a champion-for-hire. The theme song of the series refers to him as "a knight without armor." In addition, Paladin drew a parallel between his methods and the chess piece's movement: "It's a chess piece, the most versatile on the board. It can move in eight different directions, over obstacles, and it's always unexpected." Paladin was a former Army officer and a graduate of West Point. He was a polyglot, capable of speaking any foreign tongue required by the plot. He also had a thorough knowledge of ancient history and classical literature, and he exhibited a strong passion for legal principles and the rule of law.
  With the success of Dragnet in 1949-50, radio networks rushed to fill the airwaves with more realistic police procedural dramas. Tales of the Texas Rangers was one of these. Stacy Keach, Sr. was able to gain to the cooperation of the legendary Texas law enforcement agency to adapt stories from their case files. While the agency was formed in 1835, the cases adapted for radio were from between the 1920s and the late the 1940s. While programs like Dragnet and The Line Up told realistic stories in urban settings, Tales of the Texas Rangers featured stories set across the breadth and depth of the Lone Star State, which often sent Ranger Jace Person (Joel McCrea) into rural areas in Texas, including some that could only be reached on horseback. Still, like Dragnet, the series was dedicated to showing the real procedures and processes used by investigators in the field. Tales of the Texas Rangers made its way to television in 1955, starring Willard Parker as Ranger Jace Pearson and Harry Lauter as his partner Clay Morgan. Unlike the radio series, the television series was targeted towards a juvenile audience, and alternated between contemporary stories and those from the Old West. The TV series ran for fifty-two episodes, and left the air after three seasons on CBS and ABC in 1958.   NEW Enjoy 1001 Sherlock Holmes Stories and The Best of Arthur Conan Doyle https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/1001-sherlock-holmes-stories-best-sir-arthur-conan/id1534427618 Get all of our shows at one website: https://.1WWW.BESTOF1001STORIES.COM 001storiespodcast.com My email works as well for comments: 1001storiespodcast@gmail.com SUPPORT OUR SHOW BY BECOMING A PATRON! https://.patreon.com/1001storiesnetwork. Its time I started asking for support!

For nearly three years Henry Plummer and his gang terrorized gold and silver miners in Montana and Oregon, killing over 100 innocent men. Plummer became a sheriff, his deputies were his hired killers, and Plummer wasn't suspected when he joined the vigilante committees, where he got the names of the men who were trying to bring law and order to that area. Finally- his end came-and this is his story.

An eyewitness account of the great Oklahoma Land Rush of 1893 during which millions of acres of land was offered to homesteaders who could reach it and file on it first.. This is followed by a newspaper account of the same. There were 300,000 people trying for 22,000 possible parcels of land and it was a wild melee. the worst part of it was the cheaters- those who snuck onto the land ahead of time- their excuse being that others had done the same to them during the past land rush. Two famous terms arose from this land rush- "Boomers"- those who waited for the cannon to boom before starting out- and "Sooners"- those who cheated and went early. Learn more about your ad choices.

Gunsmoke is an American radio and television Western drama series created by director Norman MacDonnell and writer John Meston. The stories take place in and around Dodge City, Kansas, during the settlement of the American West. The radio version ran from 1952 to 1961 and is commonly regarded as one of the finest radio dramas of all time. The television version ran from 1955 to 1975 and is the longest running prime time drama and the second-longest running prime time fictional program in U.S. television history, its record surpassed only by the Disney anthology television series (which, though essentially the same in every incarnation, has appeared on TV under several titles).
