From Robert La Salle’s ventures down the Mississippi River, onward to Lewis and Clark’s fearless trips forging toward the West Coast, the Old Time Radio Show of Frontier Fighters brings you a historical account of the times.
Frontier Fighters was a western drama radio show that took its listeners backinto a time of American history when men and women with brave heartsand pioneering spirits were the first of the European settlers toventure into the unknown West.
The broadcasts of Frontier Fighters were only done in 15 minute increments, but the writers did a great job of presenting an interesting drama of a piece of American history from the 1600s tothe 1800s.
Some of the shows were about individual people who made a difference in American history – either good or bad – and some were about instances, such as the legendary happenings along the Oregon Trail.
These short vignettes of American history often whet the appetite of listeners to know more about the incident or person. They were incredibly produced, designed to dramatize the subject matter as much as possible in a 15 minute venue, which was really only 10 or 11 minutes after the music and commentaries.
