Although his character's names and personalities were fiction- his story was taken from actual historical events- namely, the creation of the legendary Goodnight-Loving Trail in Texas and New Mexico, and the events and tragedy surrounding Charles Goodnight and Oliver Loving. In this episode we discuss the making of the movie \"Lonesome Dove\" as well as the actual events that inspired it. Credits: \"The Goodnight-Loving Trail\" lyrics Utah Phillips, Song performed here by Joe Ely.
