Fort Laramie.
"Listeners were given one last great western as the Golden Age of Radio was coming to an end. 'Specially transcribed tales of the dark and tragic ground of the wild frontier' told the 'dramatic story of Lee Quince, Captain of Cavalry!' Raymond Burr starred as Quince, with Vic Perrin, Jack Moyles, and Harry Bartell co-starring as his fellow officers. The show was meant to be 'a monument to ordinary men who lived in extraordinary times' - and with its gritty realism, attention to detail, and historical accuracy, it was just that. With scripts that drew a clear picture of the threat of scurvy, the residual pain of the Civil War, the strained relations with Native Americans, and the sorrows stoically endured by pioneer women, Fort Laramie was an honest reflection of the difficulties and danger of life on an isolated Army post in the early 1880's"--Container.
