The Tenderfoot

1964 · 1 season

A slow, old-fashioned frontier yarn of hard travel and hard lessons, more earnest than exciting.

Overview
Based on author James H. Tevis’ Arizona in the 50s. Natural dangers and hostile Indians create problems for travelers in the West in the 1850s; a young man almost killed in an Indian raid looks to a frontier scout, Mose Carson, for an education. They get involved in a plan to sell wild mustangs to the Army. The edited-down theatrical release of a 3-part miniseries that aired on television.
