First edition, 12mo. Stiff printed wrappers, 39 pp., An interesting, contemporary account of the crimes and eventual demise and death of Vicente Silva and his gang. Six Guns 103 says, "Rare." "The author admits he used Manuel Cabeza de Baca's book as the basis for his own, and the two books are very similar, but he does add a little new material." This copy has Carl Hertzog's library bookplate tipped in. Fine copy.
