Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Book Three of Once Upon A Time in the Past, subtitled "The Last Of The Logan Boys", marks the end of the infamous Logan boys' Outlaw Trail when all the brothers but one are dead, two by a posse's bullets, one at the end of a rope, and the other to escape to freedom - if freedom is tired, lonely, hungry- with a big lawman named Jake Shaw hounding his trail beyond his juridiction. Jake Shaw was an old army veteran of the Civil War turned lawman shortly after the war ended. He was just twenty-two years old when Robert E. Lee surrendered to Ulysses S. Grant in April of 1865, just twenty-one years ago. He had hung up his uniform for a deputys badge and later became sheriff of Clayton County. He been wearing a Silver Star every since. Jake Shaw had not lost brothers, uncles or cousins in the war as other soldiers he had known and, therefore, he held no drudge toward his fellow man of the Gray. Before the war, it had been just him and his maw. He knew nothing of his paw, only that he had been a riverboat operator on the Mississippi. His maw had traveled with his paw on every route, carrying him, Shaw, in her womb until the day he was born on the river. She had been there when he left to join the war, standing in the yard waving goodbye. And she was there when he came home four years later. He had stood over her with his head bowed, his Union hat in hand, to say goodbye to her again. A headstone said Sally Shaw had died in 1863. But her son hadnt learned of her death until he came home from the War of the Lost

Download or read book Company Towns of the Pacific Northwest written by Linda Carlson and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 2017-09-01 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Company town.” The words evoke images of rough-and-tumble loggers and gritty miners, of dreary shacks in isolated villages, of wages paid in scrip good only at price-gouging company stores of paternalistic employers. But these stereotypes are outdated, especially for those company towns that flourished well into the twentieth century. This new edition updates the status of the surviving towns and how they have changed in the fifteen years since the original edition, and what new life has been created on the sites of the ones that were razed. In the preface, Linda Carlson reflects on how wonderful it has been to meet people who lived in these towns, or had parents who did, and to hear about their memorable experiences.

Download or read book Homicide Race and Justice in the American West 1880 1920 written by Clare V. McKanna and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2022-05-10 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a chilling scene in the film Unforgiven, Clint Eastwood as the gunman stands over a wounded Gene Hackman, the sheriff, aiming a rifle at his head. "I don't deserve this, to die like this," says Hackman. Eastwood replies, "Deserve's got nothing to do with it," cocks his rifle, and fires point blank at his helpless victim. This scenario dramatically brings home to the viewer what historians have long debated and hundreds of other films and books suggest: the turn-of-the-century West was a violent time and place. Ranchers, miners, deputy sheriffs, teenagers and old men, occasionally even housewives and mothers found themselves at the business end of a shotgun or a .38 revolver. Yet, since western historians tend to portray violence as essentially episodic--frontier gunfights, range wars, vigilante movements, and the like--solid data has been hard to come by. As a beginning point for actually measuring lethal violence and assessing the administration of justice, here at last is a detailed and well-documented study of homicide in the American West. Comparing data from representative areas--Douglas County, Nebraska; Las Animas County, Colorado; and Gila County, Arizona--this book reveals a level of violence far greater than many historians have believed, even surpassing eastern cities like New York and Boston. Clashing cultures and transient populations, a boomtown mentality, easy availability of alcohol and firearms: these and many other factors come under scrutiny as catalysts in the violence that permeated the region. By comparing homicide data, including coroner's inquests, indictments, plea bargains, and sentences across both racial and regional lines, the book also offers persuasive evidence that criminal justice systems of the Old West were weighted heavily in favor of defendants who were white and against those who were African American, Native American, or Mexican. Packed with information, this is a book for students and scholars of western history, social history, criminology, and justice studies. Western history buffs will be captivated by colorful anecdotes about the real West, where guns could and did blaze over anything from love trysts to vendettas to too much foam on the beer. From whatever perspective, all readers are sure to find here a well-constructed framework for understanding the West as it was and for interpreting the region as it moves into the future.
