    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Deborah Gottschalk, 240-662-2930 June 17, 2014 [email protected] PREPARE FOR A WILD WEST DUEL BETWEEN OUTLAWS AND LAWMEN IN AMERICAN HEROES CHANNEL’S NEW HISTORICAL DOCUDRAMA SERIES GUNSLINGERS -- Wyatt Earp premiere features commentary from actor Kurt Russell (Tombstone); Wild Bill Hickok played by Walt Willey (All My Children) and features commentary by David Milch (creator of Deadwood) -- (Silver Spring, MD)—Throughout the 19th century, the territory west of the Mississippi was a rough place, crawling with outcasts, murderers, thieves and bounty hunters. Across this lawless landscape, a few brave men protected the innocent from an endless stream of gun-wielding outlaws. In the thrilling six-part historical docudrama series GUNSLINGERS, American Heroes Channel immerses viewers in the true stories behind infamous icons and legendary conflicts of the Wild West. Captivating in its cinematic storytelling, GUNSLINGERS exposes the real, often little-known adventures of the Wild West’s iconic characters, and how their fearless pursuit of freedom and profit still resonate in America today. From unlawful lawman Wyatt Earp, teenage vagabond Billy the Kid, scorned rebel Jesse James, Yankee sharpshooter Wild Bill Hickok, dangerous psychopath John Wesley Hardin and war veteran-turned-assassin Tom Horn, GUNSLINGERS tips its cowboy hat to those who became icons in a wild, wild world. Juxtaposed with vivid reenactments, expert commentary is layered throughout each episode to ensure the authenticity and historical accuracy of each story. Contributors include: David Milch, the creator of Deadwood; Bob Boze Bell, the executive editor of True West Magazine; and actor Kurt Russell, who portrayed his favorite western icon, Wyatt Earp, in the classic film Tombstone.

  • Dichotomy in American Western Mythology Thesis
    21A "A I DICHOTOMY IN AMERICAN WESTERN MYTHOLOGY THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the University of North Texas in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE by Scott E. Robinson, B.F.A. Denton, Texas May, 1991 Robinson, Scott E. , Dichotomy in American Western Mythology. Master of Science (Interdisciplinary Studies), May, 1991, 129 pp., 19 illustrations, bibliography, 60 titles. The fundamental dichotomy between savage and civilized man is examined within the archetypal Western myth of American culture. The roots of the dichotomy are explored through images produced between 1888 and 1909 by artists Frederic Remington and Charles Russell. Four John Ford films are then used as a basis for the "dichotomous archetype" approach to understanding Western myth in film. Next, twenty-nine "historical" and "contemporary" Western movies are discussed chronologically, from The Virginian (1929) to Dances with Wolves (1990), in terms of the savage/civilized schema as it is personified by the roles of archetypal characters. The conclusion proposes a potential resolution of the savage/civilized conflict through an ecumenical mythology that recognizes a universal reverence for nature. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Larry Gleeson, professor of Art History, has served as an exemplary scholar and model lecturer. The breadth of Larry's academic expertise as well as his depth of human sensitivity made every step of this thesis project rewarding. John Smith, a member of the English faculty (and a former student of Walter Prescott Webb), is responsible for stimulating this student's interest in Western mythology during the early stages of this thesis project. Steven Fore from the Division of Radio, Television and Film provided invaluable guidance in the area of film criticism; his enthusiasm was a positive and gracious addition to the thesis committee during the final stages of the project.

  • Celebrating Western Hospitality for Over 115 Years
    Celebrating Western Hospitality for over 115 years The meeker Hotel was founded in an old army barracks sold at auction after the army removed its troops on September 6, 1883. It was purchased by a pioneering woman named Sarah C. Wright. She was s southern lady from South Carolina with the urge to explore the Wild West. She made her way through Mississippi, Kansas, Nebraska Wyoming and finally the White river of northwest Colorado. She homesteaded in March 1883 at the foot of what is now known as Nine Mile Hill. That fall she established a business that would survive over a century and become a landmark in Colorado. At this time Susan was the only female member of the Town Company and known for her intelligence, generosity and hospitality (and the colorful habit of being a woman how enjoyed a nice mild cigar!) When she passed away in 1893 she willed the hotel to her younger brother Rueben S. Ball. R.S. Ball had come to Colorado on June 6, 1890 at 23 years old and established a saloon in Creed, Colorado. It was later destroyed in the Creed fire at which time R.S. Ball returned to Meeker to help his sister run The Meeker Hotel. R.S. Ball was responsible for building the structure that stands today. He erected the two-story center in 1896 using 200,000 bricks! (many believe he was still apprehensive after loosing his saloon in Creed’s fire). He added the east and west wings in 1904 and it is his enthusiasm for hunting that we have to thank for the beginnings of the trophy collection in the Hotel Lobby.
