Encyclopedia of Stagecoach Robbery in Arizona

Rating:
Summary: Well Done
Review: I love the old west and its history, rich in exiting events, but so much of what has been published or filmed is filled with myth or misrepresentation. Therefore, I was pleased to find a book on one of the most exciting periods of the old west with details that ensure accuracy and honesty. Stagecoaching has been presented before, but never so completely as in the Encyclopedia of Stagecoach Robbery in Arizona. There are some stories included which have little to say about the event, except to record that a robbery occurred, but the completeness of the other stories shows that these few must have been all the documentation the author could find. For the first time I have a clear picture of stagecoach robbery in the old west, at least in Arizona, and I hope other books on this subject in other states will follow.
