Liberty (also known as Liberty, A Daughter of the USA) is a 1916 American Western film serial directed by Jacques Jaccard and Henry MacRae, and was the first purely Western serial ever made. The film is now presumed to be lost.[1] It is one of the most popular serials of all time.[2]

Plot

Cast

Production

Liberty, a Daughter of the USA was the first purely Western serial, although Western elements were included in earlier serials such as The Perils of Pauline (1914).[3] A print of Liberty was one of the primary footage sources used for the compilation film The Revenge of Pancho Villa (1930–36).[4]
