Boots and Saddles is an American Western television series created by Robert A. Cinader which aired in syndication from 1957 to 1958. “It was a lonely land then, the vast frontier held by the last scattered remnants of the once great armies that fought the Civil War. To such as these, all but forgotten, doing a dirty, thankless job, without reward or glory, the army was a way of life, the only one they knew or wanted.”
