Guns 484: "An outstanding western book with much on outlawry and a good firsthand account of the battle between the cowboys and Elfego Baca, a fight in which the author participated." Herd 569. Six Score 23: "The better part of this book is devoted to Cook's ranching career, but his varied life in other roles is also described.
