The Lawkeepers

di Tom Rizzo (Autore)

Tom Rizzo, 2016

Maintaining law and order in the Old West stood as a major challenge to those who chose to wear a badge. The hours were long. The expanse of the areas under a lawman’s jurisdiction was huge. Although the responsibilities fell to the most qualified, no formal guidelines or standards were in place. In Tall Tales from the High Plains & Beyond, Book Two: The Law Keepers, novelist Tom Rizzo introduces you to a courageous, sometimes innovative, and mostly persistent cross section of those who figured out the best way to do the job on their terms. A few others walked both sides of the law. One of the Dalton brothers who didn’t break the law. He chose to enforce it. Jack Slade who lay in the dirt bleeding from six bullet wounds and two shotgun blasts, but lives to reap revenge. A rare town square showdown between Wild Bill Hickok and gambler Davis Tutt to settle a poker game argument. Tom “Bear River” Smith, the town marshal who wore no gun while patrolling the streets of Abilene, Kansas, dubbed, the Wickedest & Wildest Town in the West. Sheriff Harry Morse and his courageous one-man showdown with a feared killer and his gang. Texas Ranger Jim Gillett who risked everything by riding into a Mexican village to capture the man who killed his friend. George Maledon, a small quiet man with dark eyes, known as the Prince of Hangmen.
