Omschrijving
He may be little known today, but Ben Daniels was a feared gunman who typified the journeyman gunfighter every bit as much as those whose names have become legend. Yet his story has eluded researchers and yarn-spinners alike—until now. Tracing his life from jailhouse to White House, DeArment and DeMattos present a full-length biography of Daniels.
Robert K. DeArment (1925–2021) was a University of Toledo, Ohio, graduate whose research and writing focused on nineteenth-century American history, especially outlaws and law enforcement in the frontier West. He is the author of Bat Masterson: The Man and the Legend and the three-volume Deadly Dozen: Forgotten Gunfighters of the Old West.
William B. Secrest is the author of many books on western lawmen and outlaws, including The Man from the Rio Grande: A Biography of Harry Love, Leader of the California Rangers Who Tracked Down Joaguin Murrieta.
