Gunfighters, Highwaymen, and Vigilantes: Violence on the Frontier
Roger D. McGrath
On the frontier, says conventional wisdom, a structured society did not exist and social control was largely absent. This view of the frontier is projected by motion pictures, television, and most scholarly histories. But was the frontier really all that violent? This book attempts to answer these questions and others about the frontier.
