Badge and Buckshot: John Boessenecker
"Boessenecker's historical account profiles ten of the Golden State's most notorious lawmen and outlaws, as well as two remarkable tales of frontier violence. Shoot-outs, stage holdups, and manhunts abounded back when the now-forgotten adversaries encountered each other: there was Sheriff Boggs against the Tom Bell and Rattlesnake Dick gangs, or the Coates-Frost fued that lasted twenty years and proved to be California's bloodiest vendetta... The result of extensive original research, this book fills a definite void in the serious treatment of law enforcement during a turbulent era." Booklist.
