Paperback book - 272 pages - $22.85

On November 29, 1903, Tom Horn was hanged in Cheyenne, Wyoming, for the murder of a fourteen-year-old nester boy.

Horn - army scout and interpreter for Generals Wilcox, Crook, and Miles in the Apache wars, Pinkerton operative, cattle detective and "king of Cowboys" - was hanged like a common criminal, many think mistakenly.

His own account of his life written while in prison and first published in 1904 is not really a vindication
