Article Abstract:

An overview of the work of Sir Christopher Frayling and his critical works of areas of popular culture traditionally ignored by critics. While many criticise Frayling for the sheer volume of work he produces, it is argued that many of his works are not easily dismissed and his works on Sergio Leone and spaghetti westerns cannot be overlooked by any serious students of the genre.
