    The Memoirs of Wild Bill Hickok
    Gunfighter. US Marshall. Legend. James Butler Hickok was a celebrity before there was a Hollywood...and he was dead before he was forty. Spur Award-winning author Richard Matheson delves into the life and times of the man behind the myth. The cruelty that turned him violent. The fears that drove him.

    There’s a tall, dark stranger in town, and he rode in wearing the dead men’s clothes....
