HOPALONG CASSIDY – Western Hero. Television and Film Icon. Idolized Role Model. The Cowboy Who Did Right. Hopalong Cassidy, who rode into the hearts of millions as the good-guy of the West, is a shining piece of American history. William Boyd stars as the cowboy in black, with his trusty stallion Topper, in these two classic, original Western films: Border Patrol and Doomed Caravan!
