columnist, Bat Masterson served as sheriff of Ford County, Kansas, ruled
Dodge City, and became an eyewitness to the heyday of the Old West's
most notorious outlaws. His thrilling collection of mini-biographies
reveals fascinating details about a host of legendary gunslingers,
painting a vivid portrait of a world of sharpshooters, cattle rustlers,
and frontier justice. First published as a series of magazine articles
in 1907, these life-and-death dramas introduce you to some of the most
famous gunfighters America has ever known.
The roundup includes Wyatt Earp, who had a reputation for courage and
calm, but went on the warpath when one of his five brothers was killed
by stagecoach robbers; Doc Holliday, a mean-tempered dentist who loved
poker and moonshine—and found trouble wherever he traveled; Ben
Thompson, a fearless gunman who served in the Civil War and was
determined to continue fighting after the last battle ended; Luke Short,
a slightly built man with nerves of steel, who started out as a gambler
and ended up a Shakespeare-quoting gentleman; and Bill Tilghman, who
captured some of the West's most desperate criminals. Illustrated with
forty-eight rare nineteenth-century photos, these colorful accounts will
