- catalog abstract ""In the world of Western films, Randolph Scott, Joel McCrea, and Audie Murphy have sometimes been overshadowed by favorites like Roy Rogers and John Wayne. Yet these actors played a crucial role in the changing environment of the post-World War II Western, and made many excellent middle-budget films. This chronological account of the three stars' careers begins in 1946 and concludes with Audie Murphy's last Western in 1967. Covering both the personal and professional lives of these three Hollywood cowboys, the book also depicts Hollywood at a time of transformation in its attitude toward the Western. The text is complemented by nearly 70 photographs and a filmography for each of the three."--Jacket.".
