"Bar-20" is the story of Hopalong Cassidy before he became the "TV-Cowboy." He was a typical late-19th century cowboy, except he could rope, ride and shoot. In this book, he's nothing like the suave, quiet hero who always saves the day at the last minute. The author describes him as "a combination of irresponsibility, humor, good nature, love of fighting, and nonchalance when face to face with danger." This is the real Hopalong.
Clarence E. Mulford (3 February 1883-10 May 1956) was the author of Hopalong Cassidy, written in 1907. He wrote it in Fryeburg, Maine, United States, and the many stories and 28 novels were followed by radio, feature film, television, and comic book versions. Clarence was born in Streator, Illinois. He died of complications from surgery in Portland, Maine. Mulford set aside much of his money from his books for local charities.
