Summary: Courage +Paladin = Richard Boone
Comment: When I was born in 1953, my first memory of television consisted of Westerns Television shows as well as movies. I loved them at the time but after time, I grew blaise.
Just since last year, I have been faithfully watching "HGWT" each Saturday morning (like a child) and became fascinated and.... admittedly a little enamored of Richard Boone.
This month I have just read "Richard Boone: A Knight Without Armor in a Savage Land" by David Rothel. What a fascinating and complex man Richard Boone was, and I was delighted to have it affirmed how much I suspected that the character of "Paladin" was the real Richard Boone.
The book is filled with interesting photographs, interviews along with summaries of all the "HGWT" episodes. I was astonished to learn that Richard Boone was also starring in three others tv series. I had never heard of "Medic", and wish his anthology series could be televised. I always respect the work of repertory theate. And what a group of performers he had selected! Typically, TV execs aired this anthology series opposite "I Love Lucy"...unfair competition.
It was heartwarming to read of his wife's memories of her 30+ years with Boone. She has alot of guts and staying power!
This is the perfect book for any devoted fan of TV westerns!
I am thankful to the author for this labor of love.

Summary: john m. williams
Comment: Skilled with a gun, or with his fists, knowledge of subjects as
various as the Menonites to playing the Japanese game of Go, an
expert of fine wines, well tailored colthing, and of course a ladies man about town. James Bond? No Paladin! Paladin was James
Bond before James Bond hit the big time. Here was a series way ahead of it's time. Tell me which western produced in that covered such subjects of the mental illness and the conflict of
being a part of two cultures? Richard Boone brought life to the
roll as Paladin. It is sad that the series lasted "only six years" but maybe it is for the best because those six seasons
was some of the television the world has seen.
Rating: 5
Summary: Great Book about Paladin
Comment: I was surprised to receive a large, very well researched book about Boone. Its pictures were also beautiful. It's build with interviews with those who have known Boone. I had doubts about this method, but it worked fine. I think Boone had the charisma to be a great star, but maybe his looks did not allow it. Anyway, if you are interested in Boone, you find all essential facts about him in this book. I recommend it.
