Description of 'A WESTERN CELEBRATION': "This beautifully produced volume is a stunning comprehensive visual work showcasing the entire collection of the Westerns and rare and vintage movie posters of John Wayne's career. It is an exclusive stirring tribute to the unforgettable Duke a man as large as the American West that he so loved. It celebrates Duke's Centennial year and his many contributions to the colorful tapestry of the West through his 87 Western movies. John Wayne had the unique ability to capture the spirits and show us the faces off the rugged individuals who left their tracks across the wild and unforgiving landscape of the West. It was the cowboy who became the American folk hero. And it was big John Wayne who came to represent the American cowboy and all the great qualities of America around the world. This book is for those who are proud to be American. An imposing feature length Western filmography that salutes and honors a timeless American. Maureen O'Hara best summed it up with her speech to the United States Congress in 1979 when she said: 'To the people of the world John Wayne is the United States of America. He is what they believe it to be what they hope it will be and what they hope it always will be.'" This is a heavy book but price INCLUDES FULL EXTRA COST of US Media Delivery; however USPS Priority or International mailing would incur additional charge due to weight and distance. .
