Bonanza: The Paiute War (1959) (TV)

An incident involving an attempted rape against Indian women of the Bannock tribe snowballs into a war involving another tribe, the Paiute, and the whites.

I sincerely revoke my bad omens about this show. It has become clear to me that the initial set-up, which I found so corny, has become a mere excuse for the telling of variegated interesting stories involving mining, Indians, and, last but not least, farmers.
