Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Harry Young's memoir is an evocative description of life at the sharp end of the early West.
As a young man, Young left New York to see the wild west he had read about in dime novels as a child. His travels took him through infamous towns and brought him into contact with the famed and storied figures of Calamity Jane and Wild Bill Hickok. Young's account of Hickok's death is by no means the only highlight in this true-to-life drama, but it certainly offers another perspective and is a true eye-witness version of the demise of one of the West's great characters.
The book reads very well and is an enjoyable romp through the life of Harry Young.
