A fascinating firsthand narrative of Charlie Siringo's wild west career as the first cowboy detective that reads more like fiction than real life. After joining the Pinkerton Detective Agency, having used Pat Garrett as a reference, Siringo worked cases all over the West, from as far north as Alaska to as far south as Mexico City. In a long and varied career, Siringo chased rustlers and robbers, and went undercover in outlaw gangs and labor unions; including having infiltrated the famous Butch Cassidy's Train Robbers Syndicate. |
