Description
xIn Yavapai County, the Wild West way of living never died.
Fatal tales of jealousy, corruption, and organized vengeance swept across the landscape all the way through to the early twentieth century. In Prescott, a man with a grudge killed a fellow worker and led the sheriff on a roundabout chase before being sentenced for the murder and then, inexplicably, released and appointed to the position of constable. Near Jerome, a land deal gone wrong triggered an attempted murder, while a union dispute left the rail depot in ashes and several men dead.
Join author Drew Desmond as he brings to life the waning days of the Old West in Yavapai County with these never-before-told stories of vigilante justice and revenge.
