One
of my most favourite TV dramas, The Waltons was a long running heart-warming
TV series from the US which captivated viewers all over the world. The
series ran for nine seasons between 1971 and 1981, followed by three
TV movie specials in 1982 and three further sequels in 1993, 1995 and
1997.
Sadly, not many novels were published. The Waltons originated from Earl Hamner Jr's original novel "Spencer's Mountain" (pictured below) which inspired the TV movie "The Homecoming" (novelisation also by Earl Hamner Jr and pictured below) which in turn lead to the TV series. Three other books were published, first by Bantam Books in the US and then by Corgi Books in the UK. Whitman Books (champions of the hardcover TV novel from the 50's through to the late 70's) published a set of six (numbered) novels for younger readers during 1975. There were also at least two children's books, one published by Whitman and one by Little Golden Books. = In My Collection / = Not in My Collection |
