AN UNEXPECTED REUNION Pursued by five bad men looking to make a reputation by killing the Gunsmith, Clint Adams decides to lay low in Socorro, New Mexico. He's only just arrived when he bumps into Colorado Charlie Utter, who shares Clint's rare honor of being counted among the late Wild Bill Hickok's best friends. Hitting the trail to El Paso and Mexico, Clint hopes to shake Charlie out of his lethargy—and guilt over Bill's murder. But Clint's pursuers are still after him and would like nothing better than to add the corpse of Wild Bill's best friend to their body count...

Download They Called Him Wild Bill Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
His contemporaries called him Wild Bill, and newspapermen and others made him a legend in his own time. Among western characters only General George Armstrong Custer and Buffalo Bill Cody are as readily recognized by the general public. In writing this biography, Joseph G. Rosa has expressed the hope that "Hickok emerges as a man and not a legend." For this comprehensive revision of his earlier biography of Wild Bill the author was allowed to work from newly available materials in the possession of the Hickok family. He also discovered new material pertaining to Wild Bill’s Civil War exploits and his service as a marshal and found the pardon file of his murderer, John McCall. Additional, rare photographs of Wild Bill are published here for the first time. The results of Rosa’s additional research make this second edition the best biography of Wild Bill likely to be written for years to come.

Download Wild Bill Hickok Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Eulogised and ostracised, James Butler Hickok was alternately labelled courageous, affable, and self-confident; cowardly, cold-blooded, and drunken; a fine specimen of manhood; an overdressed dandy with perfumed hair; an unequaled marksman; and a poor shot. Born in Illinois in 1837, he was shot dead in Deadwood only 39 years later. By then both famous and infamous, he was widely known as Wild Bill.

The Revenger: The Life and Times of Wild Bill Hickok examines Wild Bill’s life in the context of 19th Century American history, from his birth, through his early manhood, and to his eventual demise. Woven into his life story are the significant role played by the Civil War in the development of his character and philosophy, the role played by popular media in the creation of his legendary status, and the changing of the western landscape and lifestyle that began to eliminate the need for gunmen such as Wild Bill. The book discusses Hickok’s early jobs in law enforcement and his associations with other significant westerners and recounts the events that transformed Hickok from a formidable lawman into a national celebrity and popular hero. Details of Hickok’s most famous gunfights, including weapons used and participants and outcomes and, of course, the end of his career including his famous death at the hands of an assassin in a saloon in Deadwood South Dakota are all explored. The book also incorporates changing views of historiographical interpretation of lawmen/gunmen in general and Wild Bill in particular. The book will have extensive illustrations—archival photos of Wild Bill, his contemporaries, his guns, etc.

Download The Incredible Life of Wild Bill Hickok Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
It has not been the purpose of this book to novelize Wild Bill Hickok. That has already been done, and rather effectively. The main purpose of this work is to find out what was real, and what imaginary, in the stories about him. Wild Bill was a fascinating personality to all who knew him. The mere mention of his name never failed to bring a crash of brasses from the orchestra. His friends never ceased to chant his praises as an honest man, an incredibly accurate pistol shot, and an individual who was without fear in the presence of danger._x000D_ Contents:_x000D_ The Prince of Pistoleers_x000D_ Ancestry and Early Manhood _x000D_ The Magnum Opus of Pistolry _x000D_ The Mccanles Mystery Solved _x000D_ Wartime Adventures_x000D_ Fight With Conquering Bear and a New Indian Romance _x000D_ The Duel With Dave Tutt_x000D_ A Blue Ribbon Outburst of Guns_x000D_ On the Plains With the Wilson Party_x000D_ Marshal of Hays City and Abilene_x000D_ Wild Bill Starts a Wild West Show_x000D_ Traits and Personal Appearance_x000D_ Three Shooting Stars _x000D_ A Visit to Cheyenne_x000D_ Romance and Marriage _x000D_ The Calamity Jane-Wild Bill Myth_x000D_ Last Days_x000D_ The Trial and Execution of Jack Mccall
