The most interesting thing about this book are the individuals chronicled in addition to the big names I expected to be there.  One chapter dealt with the Battle of Beecher Island in Eastern Colorado, an event I'd never heard of.  It had nothing to do with outlaws or lawmen, but was an amazing story.  There were some great characters in the west that escaped national fame, but were every bit as interesting as the ones movies have made household names.  This is a great book at a reasonable price and I recommend it to anyone who wants to know more about the old west, and interesting  people most have never heard of.
