This book strives to present the reality behind any legends, as a story is more interesting when told factually. Individuals such as Billy the Kid, Jesse James, Doc Holliday, Luke Short and Butch Cassidy still hold a special place in frontier history, and they precipitated other captivating stories as well. So whether they were wearing a badge, or running from the law, the gunfighters exploits still live on in American folklore. The front cover of the book is a photograph of one of the most accurate marksmen in the Old West, Commodore Perry Owens, who posed for the camera prior to his tenure as sheriff of Apache County, Arizona. This book also contains a special chapter entitled 'Guns and Gunmakers' which details the evolution of firearms through the nineteenth century.) Price:
