How the West Was Won

How the West Was Won aired as a sprawling maxi-series of double-length episodes broadcast over three seasons – a true saga, as befits the film that inspired it. Each installment presents unique themes, viewpoints and characters, all tied together by their connection to the Macahan family saga, while the family’s destiny is manifestly tied to that of the nation’s.
