"An Investigation and an Inquiry" into Fred Dodge's purported account of his part in the investigation of two train robberies near Pantano in Pima County, Arizona, and a third outside Steins, New Mexico, in 1887-88. Was he an "undercover" operative for Wells Fargo? Did he and his Tombstone partner, O. C. "Charley" Smith, solve the Pantano cases? What was the role of Virgil Earp? Did the robbers hide in Colossal Cave? "... should Fred Dodge's self-partial account of these episodes be seen as history or entertainment?" Printed and bound in England, this book is highly recommended. As new.
