These interviews offer fascinating insight into mid to late twentieth-century American history from the people who lived it. Like Keith, I learned a great deal conducting these interviews, and I hope we can hear more of them soon.

A must see for Western film fans driving through this colorful town near the Alabama Hills where so many classic and not-so-classic Westerns were shot.

This is such a cool insight into their history and development. I know I say this all the time, but…someone should write a book about this!!! Thanks for this great post.
