For a 70s TV miniseries, Western this was pretty good. Glenn Ford, Tom Selleck, and Sam Elliott were all great in this, I just wished we had gotten more of them.

Wish it was longer. I really wanted some of the individual plot-lines to be better connected and less random. I'm just now reading the L'Amour books and I can see they tried to shove too much into a two-part mini-series. I did enjoy it a lot, but felt a kind of loss because it could have been a lot more.
