This is a novelization of the silent movie The Iron Horse, a 1924 American silent Western film directed by John Ford and produced by Fox Film. It was a major milestone in Ford's career, and his lifelong connection to the western movie genre. It was Ford's first major film, in part because the hastily planned production went over budget, as Fox was making a hurried response to the success of another studio's western. William Fox , January 1, 1879 – May 8, 1952) was a Hungarian-American film executive who founded the Fox Film Corporation in 1915 and the Fox West Coast Theatre chain in the 1920s. The dedication page is to William Fox and mentions the film he produced. A superb vintage copy with DJ.LOC SSS-12
