"This is one of those books that transcends its own parochial
interest to shed light on an entire medium: the players emerge as
three-dimensional, idiosyncratic characters, and when the decline
of the series is delineated, one feels it profoundly as the genuine
tragedy and short-sided artistic waste that it was. Mr. Robertson
performed the same honors in The Fugitive Recaptured, and, as
notable works of television journalism, both deal a straight
flush."The Nassau Herald"A thorough documentation of the Emmy
Award-winning series."Ingram Reviews"Ed Robertson has studied and
described this entertainment phenomenon from its beginning in 1956
to its most recent return, the Warner Bros. movie in 1994.
Robertson has made that history suspenseful and absorbing, and I am
persuaded, after reading Maverick: Legend of the West, that
Maverick is nowhere near the end of its illustrious history."Roy
Huggins
creator of Maverick and co-creator of The Rockford Files,
from his Foreword for the First Edition of Maverick: Legend of the
West
