"All available information on Henry Plummer - the murderous road-agent sheriff of Bannack who was also a polished gentleman - has here been assembled. Just as fascinating are the portraits ... of Boone Helm, "the worst bad-man"; of Captain Joe Slade, who carried in his pockets the dried ears of his enemy; of the leaders of the Vigilantes, Jim Williams and Wilbur F. Sanders." Illustrated from photographs, and drawings by Charles Hargens. Hargens was known for his accuracy in his depictions: he did over 3000 magazine covers, and illustrated 300 books, including Zane Grey's westerns.

About Thomas J. Joyce And Company

Joyce And Company has been in business as a professional rare bookseller and appraiser since 1975. Owner Thomas Joyce was the regular book appraiser on Home & Garden TV\'s \"The Appraisal Fair\\\" program, on international broadcasts. Thomas Joyce was the co-discoverer of George Washington's personal copy of William Leybourn's 1679 edition of THE COMPLEAT SURVEYOR, from which young Washington learned some of his surveying skills at age 16. The book had vanished for nearly a century until its re-discovery in 2017. It is now back at Mt. Vernon.
