1001 Stories From the Old West

Welcome to the new 1001 Stories From the Old West.. Here we offer hand-picked accounts from diaries, historical documents, autobiographies, books of the time period, and historians to bring you the American frontier story directly from the people who lived it. You’ll hear actual accounts of Indian battles, pioneer struggles, outlaws, cowboys and Indians, lawmen, and the men and women who took the chance and moved west, many by wagon train, to a largely uncharted and wild territory. Go west, young man, are the words often attributed to Horace Greeley, American author and newspaper editor, but there was more to that quote. He wrote “Washington is not a place to live in- the rents are high, the food is bad, and the morals are deplorable. Go west, young man, go west, and grow up with the country.
We invite you to go west with us to another world, another time, another place- and see if you have what it takes to survive and thrive in a world that was much simpler than today’s- yet demanded much more of you. Time to mount up-1001 Stories From the Old West is waiting for you. We publish new episodes every other Sunday night at 6pm Eastern Standard Time and you’re invited to join us where ever you go for podcasts

ELFAGO BACA: THE MAN WHO WOULDN'T BACK DOWN Dec 11, 2024

Show notes

This is the true story of Elfego Baca- the young Mexican man who pinned on a tin badge and took on a bunch of cattlemen who were terrorizing his town. His story became legend- enough so that Disney brought his story to TV in the 50's as a regular serial. He later became a Marshall and defended the weak and the poor.

THE MARLOWE BROTHERS (THE TRUE STORY THAT INSPIRED 'THE SONS OF KATIE ELDER) Dec 08, 2024

Show notes

This is the true western story of a passel of Texas brothers who fought against a crooked justice system. The original story of the Marlowes became a frontier novel which served as the basis for the John Wayne film 'The Sons of Katie Elder', which strayed far from the true story- so we figured you should get the true story. I originally did this one for 1001 Heroes and I'm bringing it to 1001 Stories From The Old West for you fans of all things western. Please tell all your friends about our 1001 Stories From The Old West where we offer a great mix of radio fiction with well-researcedwestern stories like this one.

BIG NOSE KATE::WITNESS TO THE SHOOTOUT AT THE OK CORRAL Nov 24, 2024

Show notes

She was known in Tombstone as Big Nose Kate, the common-law wife of Doc Holliday, and at the time of the legendary shootout at the OK Corral in 1881 she was sharing a second floor room with Doc Holiday at Fly's Boarding House- one of the buildings overlooking the vacant lot near the corral where the shootings took place. And she was right there at the window with a front row seat. She wasn't called later as a witness and no one knew she had seen it all until nearly 60 years later when she wrote a letter- one of those letters that historians live to discover.
