JOHN SELMAN, Texas Gunfighter Written by Leon Claire Metz
1966, Signed, First Edition
This is the first full-length biography of John Selman, famous as the "man who killed John Wesley Hardin." Selman was a figure of stealth and violence -- an outlaw and a leader of outlaws who had many notches on his gun. He was known in the Southwest as a rustler, a robber and a killer, but only once did John Selman come close to being convicted of a crime -- when he was tried for the murder of John Wesley Hardin. JOHN SELMAN is a must-read book for badman buffs, for those interested in Southwest history and for all readers of Western Americana.
1966, Signed First Edition Hard cover with dust jacket, 254 pages and a section of photographs The dust jacket is not price clipped but it does have some small tears at the top of the spine and general shelf wear. The book itself is in excellent condition.
