Fort Laramie, Volume 2

Raymond Burr stars as the commanding officer of a rugged cavalry outpost in 'Fort Laramie,' a subtle and realistic dramatic series created, written, and produced by many of the same people who made radio history with the groundbreaking adult western 'Gunsmoke'. Producer Norman Macdonnell saw the series as 'a monument to ordinary men who lived in extraordinary times'; their enemies 'the rugged, uncharted country, the heat, the cold, disease, boredom, and, perhaps last of all, hostile Indians.' Though its run was short, just 40 episodes in all, 'Fort Laramie' proved to be every bit as grand as the critically acclaimed 'Gunsmoke' and, today, you'll find it among the top ten shows on the list of many radio enthusiasts. This collection offers the final twenty shows of the series.
