A badman is not necessarily a bad man, but he is not a man to mess
with. He might be a killer, a con artist, or even a Texas Ranger
with his own ideas about law enforcement; or he might just be
"wuthless". C. F. Eckhardt tells the stories your teacher never
told you about Texas outlaws.
Combining history with lively storytelling, Eckhardt adds new
details to our knowledge of such figures as Judge Roy Bean, John
Wesley Hardin, and Bonnie and Clyde, and introduces us to others
previously known only in their own neighborhoods: the murderous
Yokums of the Big Thicket, the feuding madams of El Paso's brothel
district, and the tragic Papworths of Erath County.
