Sweethearts of the Sage: Biographies and Filmographies of 258 Actresses Appearing in Western Movies

Hundreds of leading ladies have appeared in the thousands of Westerns produced since 1903’s The Great Train Robbery, riding in and out, never to be heard of again. A relative few of the women stayed around to make a name for themselves. This comprehensive biographical reference book of those rangeland queens is divided into four parts:
Path Finders,
active before 1920;
Trail Blazers,
whose heyday was in the 1920s;
Pioneers,
of the 1930s and 1940s; and
Homesteaders,
primarily post-1940. If an actress appeared in at least eight Westerns, or a lesser number of significant oaters, she is in this book. Generously illustrated.
