{"product_id":"western-gunslingers-in-fact-and-buck-rainey-9780786403967","title":"Western Gunslingers in Fact and on Film: Hollywood's Famous Lawmen and Outlaws","description":"\u003cp\u003e Billy the Kid, Wild Bill Hickok, Belle Starr, Wyatt Earp, the Younger Gang, the Dalton-Doolin Gang and Bat Masterson--these real-life lawmen and lawbreakers have been the basis of so many Hollywood Westerns that it has become difficult to discover where the truth ends and the legend begins. All actually became larger-than-life characters during their lifetimes, as contemporary newspapers and books embellished their deeds for their own purposes. But it was in Hollywood that the line between reality and myth was completely blurred. Each chapter-length entry here first focuses on the known facts of the people's lives and how each became truly legendary during their lifetimes. The reality is then compared to how they have been portrayed in the movies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Buck Rainey\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0786403969\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780786403967\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e McFarland \u0026amp; Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/15\/1998\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 349\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 6.02w x 0.83d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eAmerican Reference Bks Annual\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2000 pg. 544","brand":"Buck Rainey","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44059688730879,"sku":"9780786403967","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_598662b4-e804-4555-9d55-ba900ed21711.jpg?v=1685059741","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/western-gunslingers-in-fact-and-buck-rainey-9780786403967","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
