About This Item
Caxton Printers, 1968. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Fine/Fine. Fine copy in dust jacket. First edition. Guns 725: "The most complete treatise of early mining in the West that I have examined. Like a good historian he corrects some of the false history that has been written about this subject. He deals with such California outlaws as Tom Bell, Joaquin Murieta, Tiburcio Vasquez, Black Bart, Three-Fingered Jack Garcia, and Jack Powers.Among the noted females he includes are Calamity Jane, Cattle Kate Watson, and many of the better-known prostitutes of the West.This is a large heavy book, but well worth the effort and strength to read it through." Adams One-Fifty 54.
