THE KINKAID COUNTY WAR
Wild Bill Hickok was a legend in his own lifetime. Wherever he went his reputation with a gun preceded him—along with an open bounty for ten thousand dollars for his arrest. But Wild Bill was working for the law when he went to Kinkaid County, Wyoming. Hundreds of prime longhorn cattle had been poisoned, and Bill was sent by the Pinkerton Agency to get to the bottom of it. He didn’t expect to land smack dab in the middle of an all-out range war, but that’s exactly what happened. With the powerful Cattleman’s Association on one side and land-grant settlers on the other, Wild Bill knew that before this was over he’d be testing his gun skills to the limit if he hoped to get out alive.

"More than anybody now writing about that long-ago time and place of the Old West, John Edward Ames most reminds me of my old friend and mentor, Will Henry. I can truly think of no higher compliment to give either man."
