Considered by many to be the “First Western Novel,” the 1901 book by Owen Wister was written about a fictionalized version of the very real Johnson County Cattle War. The eponymous “virginian,” was a ranch hand and lawman trying to keep the peace at a ranch near Medicine Bow, WY. The town itself holds the TV show in high esteem, and a hotel was built just a few years after the novel was published with the name “The Virginian,” and was named the most luxurious hotel this side of Denver.
