An outstanding work regarding events in the lives of such famous gunmen as John Wesley Hardin, Ben Thompson, Bill Longley, Billy Breakenridge, Dallas Stoudenmire, Billy The Kid, Sam Bass, Wild Bill Hickok, Butch Cassidy, Tom Horn, and others; including Texas Ranger Captains Bill McDonald, Jim Gillett, and John R. Hughes. "This book has become a standard work and is reliable in most points. The author also corrects the legend about Wild Bill Hickok's "fight" with McCanles."-SixGuns 530. A fine, bright copy in the elusive dust jacket. The dust jacket is internally reinforced with tape at spine ends and corners, and shows rubbing and a few scuffs. Although either dust jacket is quite scarce, the yellow dust jacket is more common, while the bluish-grey dust jacket on this copy is rarely seen.
