Step back in time with Six-Guns and Single-Jacks as Bob Alexander colorfully recounts tales of the violence and lawlessness that made Silver City and Old Grant County, New Mexico, one of the most dangerous places in the Southwest. Silver City's history, previously known only to a small cadre of Western enthusiasts, comes to life in the form of a violent cultural collision. There, settlers and Apache struggled for control of this rugged mountain haven, while later the likes of Billy the Kid used it as a launching pad for a lifetime of crime. Alexander has synthesized his years of researching and writing about this corner of the Old West into a comprehensive history of those colorful pre-statehood days, illustrated with more than 80 rare historic photos that Alexander ferreted out from a wide variety of sources., ISBN13: 9780976572800 ISBN10: 097657280X Material Type: paperback
