The Molyneux Family

Here is one trivia item you can pass on to your friends, the name Molyneux in a book and movie. The name of the story is "Breakheart Pass" by Alistair MacLean. The book was published in 1974 with the movie following in 1975.

The characters name is Dr. Edward Molyneux. He is an Army officer assigned to Fort Humboldt east of Virginia City in Nevada Territory. In the movie (starring Charles Bronson and Jill Ireland), Dr. Molyneux is played by David Huddleston.

Here are some pictures of the book I have. The original book cover is different. My cover was created after the movie was produced (obviously to promote the movie).
