LIFE OF TOM HORN GOVERNMENT SCOUT AND INTERPRETER $ 30.00 FREE SHIPPING
Click on photo for a larger view
The book is the 1964 new edition (which is now also known as the first new edition) was published as part of the Western
Frontier Library by the University of Oklahoma Press. The book is complete with 277 pages in excellent condition. It also has
an original dust jacket. The jacket has some scuffs and small chips, and spine fading but should grade overall as good.
Tom Horn was hanged in 1903 in Cheyenne Wyoming for the murder of a 14 year old Willie Nickell, near Wheatland. The
original murder, or "apprehension with malice" if you will, depending on what side of the fence you're on, was covered
extensively in the original publication Banditti of the Plains which was a banned book until it's re-publication years later. Horn
requested his executioner to be lawman T. Joe Cahill, another famous Wyomingite after he was arrested. The controversy of
the arrest is another story, explained in detail by Sheriff Joe LeFors in his book.
This interesting essay is more of a biography about Horn than a "vindication" [Krakel] and makes for a fascinating read into
the life and times of Horn...from his youth in Missouri to being taken in to train as a scout under the watchful eyes of Al
Sieber, and became involved in rounding up recalcitrant Apaches and delivering them to the reservation. The tales involve
the wiley Geronimo, the renegade Natchez, old Chief Nana, and the ingenious Mickey Free.

Life of Buffalo Bill by William F Cody $ 75.00 FREE SHIPPING
Click on photo for a larger view
The real achievements of William F. (Buffalo Bill) Cody as a plainsman, hunter, scout, and Indian fighter have tended to be
obscured by his fame as a showman. From its opening performance in 1883, Buffalo Bill's Wild West (it was never advertised
as a show or circus) enthralled audiences in America and Europe, urchins and crowned heads alike; and probably no one man
did more to establish and romanticize the tradition of the old West of cowboy and Indian. Because he personified this
tradition, Cody inspired an ocean of literature - dime novels, stories, melodramas, allegedly true accounts of his exploits -
which tarnished the credibility of his legend even as it increased his renown..
Reprint of First Edition, Originally Published 1879 [1982] As New. Fine, No dust jacket (as issued) Americana. Classics of the
Old West series. Single volume. Hardback. 365 pages. Gorgeous, brown leather, embossed cover, front cover and spine
titles in gold gilt, all edges gilt, marbled end papers, ribbon bookmark. Frontispiece. Illustration. Facsimile reprint from the
first edition, with all typographical errors as originally published "to preserve historical accuracy"
It covers the years from Cody's birth in 1846 until his thirty-fourth year, the years during which he grew up on the plains,
worked for Charles Russell, Majors & Waddell, rode the Pony Express, went on fourteen expeditions against the Indians, and
participated in fifteen Indian fights .. the years that underpin the legend of Buffalo Bill and earned him the status of an
authentic American Hero.
This edition is in excellent condition. There is a shallow scratch on the front that can only be seen when the light hits it just
so. Sells upwards of over $200 at other internet sites.

Representative Old Cowboy Ed Wright 1954 w/T Joe Cahill $ 95.00 FREE SHIPPING
Click on photo for more images
Very rare copy, 1 of only 500 printed on behalf of the St. Joseph's Orphanage, Torrington Wyoming T. Joe (tee Joe) Cahill,
endorser. The book is entitled The Representative Old Cowboy Ed Wright, an Autobiography (authored by Edgar Wright)
wonderfully and whimsically illustrated by Don Whiston with many old reproduced photographs of interest.
The book runs 216 pages, and is in good original condition. There was never a dust jacket however the exterior boards on
this hardcover are illustrated as seen in the photos below. Moderate shelf wear but pages are damage-free.
The book is dedicated to Mr. Cahill and all proceeds were to be willed to the St. Joseph's Orphanage in remembrance of
him. The inner FEP has the following inscription: To The Author Mr. Ed Wright Our Sincere Thanks [signed] Rev. Les B.
Morgan Sup't St. Josephs Orphanage Torrington Wyo [and] The best investment you can make is helping the Orphans
[signed] T. Joe Cahill. This is an ink-stamped lithograph. Former owners signature on the inner front board.
Another preface page has a photo of Mr. Cahill on his horse with an inscription offering platitudes to the author. His
inscription, meant to spur sales of the book reads thus: "If ever a man was qualified to write a cowboy story, it is Ed Wright,
author of this book. I've known Ed since he was big enough to look into a chuck box and I can vouch that he is a
cowpuncher and bronc stomper through and through. He has ridden the range as line rider and roundup worker. He's
known the solitude of wide open spaces and the loneliness of a one-man night camp. The elements are no strangers to Ed
Wright. He's fought storm and stampede, blizzard and hunger, flood and drought. As a rodeo hand, Ed was one of the top
entertainers in all rodeo history as well as an all-around good contestant and winner in each event. His book is refreshing
as a spring rain in sagebrush county and authentic as a Colt .45. I hope he sees fit to write another. If he dedicated each
book to an old friend, as he dedicated this one to me, he would have to write from now until doom's day. Sincerely, T. Joe
Cahill" that's quite the endorsement!
T. Joe Cahill served on the board at the Cheyenne Frontier Days Rodeo, The Daddy of 'em All, from 1915 to 1927 and is an
inductee into the Cheyenne Rodeo Museum Hall of Fame. It is believed he coined that famous phase. He was instrumental
in the hanging death of Tom Horn: this is an excerpt from the Annals of Wyoming history "1903, Horn was led to the gallows
by Deputy Proctor and T. Joe Cahill who at the time was a clerk. Cahill later served as Chief of Police in Cheyenne 1934-1940
and was active in rodeo circles including the Madison Square Garden Rodeo from 1928-33. Cahill apparently exhibited
some nervousness. Horn commented, "What's the matter, Joe? Ain't losing your nerve, are you?" Deputy Proctor placed
the noose made from Horn's own rope over Horn's head. Horn obliged by ducking his head and thrusting it through the
noose. Sheriff Smalley and Joe Cahill then picked Horn up and placed him on the trap" Cahill went on to serve as Chief of
Police in Cheyenne for many years.
This book is a WINNER in all aspects, full of heartwarming stories and hair-raising adventures of a young boy growing up in
Wyoming: an excellent read, one of the most interesting old books about Wyoming life

Wyoming Territory Imprint
With the First Directory of Laramie
TRIGGS, J. H. History and Directory of Laramie City, Wyoming Territory, Comprising a Brief History of Laramie City from Its First
Settlement to the Present Time, Together with Sketches of the Characteristics and Resources of the Surrounding Country;
Including a Minute Description of a Portion of the Mining Region of the Black Hills. Also a General and Business Directory of
Laramie City . Laramie City: Daily Sentinel Print, 1875. 91 [1 blank] pp. (ads interspersed and included in pagination). 8vo,
original blue printed wrappers, original stitching. Some soiling and chipping to cover. Custom made case with embossed
silver lettering. First edition. Adams , Guns 2239: “This exceedingly rare imprint gives a frank history of Laramie in its turbulent
days and reign of violence.” Adams, Herd 2332: “Very rare.” AII, Wyoming Imprints 23. Bauer 482. Bradford 5479. Eberstadt 136:
667h: “A history of the region from the day of first settlement in April of 1868. It has long been recognized by students of western
history as probably the most honest, outspoken, and vivid account of the early and turbulent days.” Available elsewhere for $6K:
recently sold Dorothy Sloan rare books auction $3900
Despite its violent and ugly beginnings, described in detail in the first few pages, Laramie by this time is represented as a
well-ordered and prosperous city. Unlike Triggs’ other work concerning Cheyenne (q.v.), this work contains in its latter part a
fascinating general directory of the populace, which captures a valuable snapshot of the residents who comprised the town.
Not surprisingly, a large number of them are employed in the building trades or other manual labor. Of equal interest is the
fact that a good percentage of the residents are employed by the railroad in such occupations as engineers, brakemen, or
firemen. Of more surpassing interest, however, is the fact the directory specifically identifies the few dozen “colored”
citizens who resided there. Almost all are confined to menial jobs, such as waiters or cooks. Finally, several women are
given separate entries, although they, too, are normally confined to genteel occupations such as dressmakers.
Book is complete with some water stains throughout. Binding is tight. Some foxing to covers.
