Alabama Justice: Memoirs of a Birmingham Bounty Killer (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798269141091)

In 1895 the hills around Birmingham, Alabama, were lawless territory, populated by rootless miners drawn to the new "Pittsburg of the South." Here, murderous outlaws, escapees from state prison mines, lived openly in defiance of county sheriffs despite prices on their heads. An unexpected hero met the challenge. Henry Cole, a middle-aged store clerk and family man, turned lawman to hunt down outlaws and then went on to tame lawless mining towns. This is the true story of Deputy Cole's violent rise and tragic death, told in his own voice. Illustrated with period photos and supplemented with historic documents.
