"A Forge book"--T.p. verso. The coming of Cassidy was first published in 1913, Bar-20 in 1907, and Hopalong Cassidy in 1910.
Summary:
These three are Clarence Mulford's first three Cassidy novels. These books helped found the genre conventions of the Western in the first decade of the 20th century. They introduced the cowboy, Hopalong Cassidy, whose character became the hero of many films and of the classic, long-running network television show, starring Willam Boyd as Hopalong Cassidy, along with his horse, Topper.
