  Explores the construction and representation of masculinity in low-budget western movies made from the 1930s to the early 1950s. This book argues that the masculinity offered by these films is less one-dimensional than it is plural, perhaps contrary to expectations. It is of interest to scholars in film studies and gender studies.
