The Singing Cowboys is a nostalgic, back-in-the-saddle examination of the musical B-Western films of the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s and the singing cowboys that made them so popular. The author, David Rothel, spent a fondly remembered portion of his youth sitting in the Lincoln Theatre in Elyria, Ohio, where the singing cowboys-Gene Autry, Roy Rogers, Tex Ritter, and all the rest-played out their adventures and yodeled their songs on the silver screen. Thousands, perhaps millions, of youngsters from that era shared this common experience during their formative years. First published in 1978, The Singing Cowboys has been out of print for many years. Now, Riverwood Press in association with The Lone Pine Museum of Western Film History has republished the book in an updated, expanded, and repackaged edition. We hope you enjoy!
