About This Item

New York: The New Home Library, 1944. Reissue. Hard Cover. Very Good/Very Good. 8x5x1. Reissue. Jacket edges rubbed, jacket lightly foxed. Red stain on page ridge rubbed. 1944 Hard Cover. 294 pp. The indubitable facts behind thousands of western thrillers--by a man who knows both the old West and the new. Six-Guns and Saddle Leather 1784: "One of the author's earlier nonfiction books, and one in which he covers the subject fairly thoroughly. Like most books about outlaws, it contains some mistakes. He repeats some of the legendary tales of Billy the Kid that were created by Ash Upson, and he says that the Kid and Jesse James were killed in 1881. Jesse was killed in 1882. He has Buckshot Roberts neutral in the Lincoln County War, but Roberts was very active and was with the crowd that killed Tunstall. He also writes that Ben Thompson and King Fisher were killed at the Palace Theatre, but in all other accounts it is called Jack Harris' Variety Theatre. There are other mistakes.
