Sneak Peak
‘The fact that I was now free, gave me new born courage to face the world and what the future might hold in store for me. After tramping around the country for two days, I finally secured work with a Mr. Brooks, about six miles from home at one dollar and fifty cents a month. Notwithstanding the smallness of my prospective wages, I was happy and returned home in a jubilant frame of mind, to impart the news to mother. I was to commence the next morning. Mother said it was not much, but better than nothing. I told mother that I thought I could bring some food and clothing home for the children before the month was out. The little ones hearing this, were overjoyed and looked on me as a rich man indeed. ’
Synopsis
Born to slaves in Davidson County, Tennessee, Nat Love headed out for Kansas after he was freed following the Civil War. He was only fifteen and bursting with reckless and romantic enthusiasm. Once in Dodge City, he joined up with an outfit from the Texas Panhandle to begin a career riding the range and fighting Indians, outlaws, and the elements. Years later, he would say, “I had an unusually adventurous life.” He continued on to say: “I carry the marks of fourteen bullet wounds on different parts of my body, most any of which would be sufficient to kill an ordinary man, but I am not even crippled.” In 1876 a brilliant rodeo performance in Deadwood, Dakota Territory, won him the moniker of Deadwood Dick. He became known as Deadwood Dick throughout the West and even landed him into dime novels as a mysteriously dark and heroic presence. This colorful and exciting autobiography includes encounters with Bat Masterson and Billy the Kid, a view of the Custer battlefield, and a successful courtship.
