This is the way I work," said Meston in 1955. "I decide that it's time for an Indian story, or an Army story, or maybe a Civil War vet returning home. Then I think of the people I knew as a kid in Colorado. And I think of what I've read about the west of 1870, and I put a character together. Let's say I decide on a man who can't take the land, it's too rough for him and he wants to get back east. Then I have my character and can build a story.
