The "Riders of the Range" book was one of a series of four "Eagle Classics" volumes (others were "Fraser of Africa" and "Harris Tweed" and "P.C. 49" by different writers and artists) celebrating the 40th anniversary of EAGLE, the British weekly illustrated paper for boys. The "Riders of the Range" series was created by writer Charles Chilton, originally for radio. Artists for the full-page colour strip included Jack Daniel, whose artwork is shown in this volume in the 23-page story "The Cochise Affair" and Frank Humphris, the artist for most of the years of publication, whose artwork is shown in the 32-page story, "The War With The Sioux" which includes scenes from the Battle of the Little Big Horn. The main characters were Jeff Arnold and his sidekick, Luke; their adventures appeared for twelve years in EAGLE. The team of Chilton and Humphris produced some of the best-researched and most entertaining Western stories ever published, and this book is an excellent introduction to their fine work. This is just one of many others from this series that I am selling on this site. Ref C 1.…
