Captain Jack & the Dalton Gang
by John J. Kinney
Furnishing a fascinating glimpse of America's westward expansion, a lively portrait of Captain Jack Kinney, the chief detective of the Missouri, Kansas, and Texas Railroad, describes his violent 1892 confrontation with the Dalton Gang in the small town of Adair in the Indian Territory and details his exploits as a Texas Ranger and U.S. deputy marshal.

Elmer McCurdy
by Mark Svenvold
Follows the misadventures of a short-term American outlaw and the sensational seventy-five-year adventure of his corpse, describing McCurdy's career failures that caused him to turn to a life of crime in Oklahoma, his ineptitude as a bank robber, and his grisly post-mortem career in show business as a sideshow and movie prop.
Against the Vigilantes
by John Boessenecker
The California Gold Rush spawned many colorful characters but none more controversial than Charles E "Dutch Charley" Duane. As chief enforcer for political boss David C. Broderick, Dutch Charley enjoyed power and prestige in San Francisco until his downfall at the hands of vigilantes. In fact, the irascible Irishman attracted so much trouble in San Francisco during the 1850s that the Committee of Vigilance outlawed him -- twice. His memoir, originally printed in the San Francisco Examiner in 1881, was located and edited by John Boessenecker. Now published for the first time in book form, it reveals a charismatic ruffian who played many roles: gunfighter, fire chief, politician, shoulder-striker, bare-knuckle boxer, gambler, saloon keeper, and land squatter. Boessenecker's introduction provides information that is crucial in judging the actions of the vigilantes who moved against Duane and his cohorts. Conventional wisdom is that the San Francisco vigilantes, many of them belonging to the mercantile elite, were motivated by bias against Catholics and the Irish working class. But Boessenecker, taking another look at the city's electoral process and criminal-justice system, directly challenges that wisdom. At the same time, Against the Vigilantes is cultural history, filled with details about the fires that swept early San Francisco, prizefighting, dueling, and urban machine politics in the decade before the Civil War.
Notable Men and Women of Spanish Texas
by Donald E. Chipman
The Spanish colonial era in Texas (1528-1821) continues to emerge from the shadowy past with every new archaeological and historical discovery. In this book, years of archival sleuthing by Donald E. Chipman and Harriett Denise Joseph now reveal the real human beings behind the legendary figures who discovered, explored, and settled Spanish Texas. By combining dramatic, real-life incidents, biographical sketches, and historical background, the authors bring to life these famous (and sometimes infamous) men of Spanish Texas: ∑ Alvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca ∑ Alonso de León ∑ Francisco Hidalgo ∑ Louis Juchereau de St. Denis ∑ Antonio Margil ∑ The Marqués de Aguayo ∑ Pedro de Rivera ∑ Felipe de Rábago ∑ José de Escandón ∑ Athanase de Mézières ∑ The Marqués de Rubí ∑ Antonio Gil Ibarvo ∑ Domingo Cabello ∑ José Bernardo Gutiérrez de Lara ∑ Joaquín de Arredondo The authors also devote a chapter to the women of Spanish Texas, drawing on scarce historical clues to tell the stories of both well-known and previously unknown Tejana, Indian, and African women.
