"The Coming of Cassidy—And the Others" by Clarence Edward Mulford is a collection of fifteen, loosely related, short stories about Hopalong Cassidy. Of course, this is a hilarious and rip-roaring Western adventure, massive on action and light on romance and mocking realism! It's also fascinating as a social study. Excerpt: "It was in the '70s, when the buffalo were fast disappearing from the state, and the hunters were beginning to turn to other ways of earning a living, that Buck Peters stopped his wagon on the banks of Snake Creek and built himself a sod dugout in the heart of a country forbidding and full of perils. It was said that he was only the agent for an eastern syndicate that, carried away by the prospects of the cattle industry, bought a "ranch," which later was found to be entirely strange to cattle. As a matter of fact there were no cows within three hundred miles of it, and there never had been. Somehow the syndicate got in touch with Buck and sent him out to look things over and make a report to them. "

First serialized in 1908, The Coming of Cassidy was finally consolidated by Clarence Mulford in 1913. This is the story of an iconic western hero who, right or wrong, backs the play of his friends, smokes, drinks, and, at times, uses shocking language for the time. The Coming of Cassidy, among other things, introduces his sidekicks and explains how Bill Cassidy came to be know to the world as Hopalong Cassidy.

Hopalong Cassidy is a cowboy hero created by the author Clarence Mulford, who wrote a series of popular short stories and many novels based on the character. In his early writings, Mulford portrayed the character as rude, dangerous, and rough-talking. He had a wooden leg which caused him to walk with a little "hop", hence the nickname. The character—as played by movie actor William Boyd in films adapted from Mulford's books—was transformed into a clean-cut, sarsaparilla-drinking hero. Sixty-six popular films appeared. The Coming of Cassidy and Others Hopalong Cassidy Bar-20 Days Buck Peters, Ranchman The Bar-20 Three Tex Clarence E. Mulford (1883–1956) created Hopalong Cassidy in 1904 while living in Fryeburg, Maine, and the many short stories and 28 novels were adapted to radio, feature film, television, and comic books, often deviating significantly from the original stories, especially in the character's traits. But more than just writing a very popular series of Westerns, Mulford recreated an entire detailed and authentic world filled with characters drawn from his extensive library research.
