First edition. 8vo. Cloth, xvi, 480 pp., introduction, acknowledgments, illustrated from photographs, portraits, appendices, chronology, bibliography, index. "An excellent book, long overdue. Through diaries, letters, and his own comments we learn of Tunstall's early travels.his attempt at cattle ranching, and his cold-blooded murder, which caused the Lincoln County War to blaze into a shooting war. There is much new material on these troubles, as well as information about Jesse Evans, Billy The Kid, The Coes, and the rest of the Kid's gang. The book is well done and should assume an important place in the history of Lincoln County, New Mexico."--Ramon Adams. As New in price-clipped dust jacket.
