Too much glorifying of Hardin here. - By: , 09 Jun 1999
While Blake is a premier writer, in this work he has chosen to glorify a deadly killer in a way that doesn't do history justice, but continues to perpetuate the myth of this man as hero. I live in the area of Texas where Hardin did many of his deeds, & myth already abounds here. We don't need a novelist to validate these misconceptions.
This author is BURNING with talent!! - By: , 19 Jan 1999
This is a fictionalized account of the life of John Wesley Hardin told by those who "knew" him. You're hooked immediately in the superb narrative, as the author takes many voices & pulls no punches. I have purchased many copies of this book & given them to friends, alll of whom loved it. A+++++.
