In the company of bank robbers and grave diggers, desperadoes and cunning Indians, Alex Capus visits the Wild West's ghost towns, discovering bizarre stories that are a match for any Western.
"Capus is normally known as a novelist, but it's not surprising to learn that he studied history. He has obviously done his research here, with a book so detailed. It reads like a who knew? of the American West. Within its pages are nuggets of surprising history about 19th Century western life."
