Bat Masterson : The man and the legend

Bat Masterson: The Man and the Legend isn't about the actor on the Western TV Channel. This biography tells about the real man, who was a typical Western hero but not a typical man of the Western frontier. He was a buffalo hunter, Indian fighter, lawman, professional gambler... He associated with Wyatt Earp, Doc Holliday and William F. Cody. He was a fight promoter, sheriff, newspaperman.I like reading about the Old West and the real men and women who lived there. This biography includes several photos that tell stories of their own.
