West of the Creek: Murder, Mayhem and Vice in Old San Antonio
David Bowser sees dead people. With an ability eerily reminiscent of the movieThe Sixth Sense, he also sees long-gone prostitutes, lawmen, desperadoes, bawdyhouses, saloons and gambling halls. This book is one of the few in print that brings the gritty side of San Antonio's frontier past into focus. . . .You'd have to be barely breathing not to be intrigued by West of the Creek. --San Antonio Express-NewsThis little book is a gem for those drawn to reading about the fast life of the frontier, and has a remarkable bibliography with many primary sources. --Journal of South Texas
