TV Series and novel[edit]

TV series didn't always follow the novel-in the novel a cruel Mexican Officer is tortured to death by peasants during Mexico's 1910 revolution. In the novel he merely captures peasants for slave labor in the Mexican mines —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.83.126.88 (talk) 13:41, 29 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

ALTERNATIVE VIEW of Scream of Eagles episode: the presentation of Garrett and Wendell was informed by mid-1970s politics, specifically the rising environmental movement. However, today's approach to these issues is more nuanced, and Paul Garrett as portrayed often comes off as pedantic, cranky, and intolerant...and his continued defense of the cattle industry doesn't mesh with modern-day ecological sensibilities. Morgan Wendell, while made to be callous and calculating, nonetheless demonstrated a better understanding of how to work with business interests and keep an eye on the future. It should be noted that on the election night, Garrett got bitterly drunk, not a good sign for someone who is asking for the public trust. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 170.201.180.137 (talk) 15:40, 22 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yes the book and the Miniseries had a cliffhanger of who was going to be elected...would have been more interesting if the novel and miniseries had included the unwritten part of Garrett's son being a descendant of both Garret and Wendell...{See article} — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.5.84.175 (talk) 17:13, 23 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

under chapter "the longhorns"[edit]

in the "hidden category" the applied conversion acre/square kilometers is 1/3 or 0.3/1 which is wrong. it should be 1/2.5 or 0.4/1 to be correct. therefore 6million acres is 24thousans square km. i myself am too drunk/dumb/old/stupid to handle WiKi-sourcery myself, as i am used to pen&ink&typex - please helpSintermerte (talk) 03:54, 18 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
