This book is one of the first books written in the USA warning of the abuses of power by private Security forces. Charlie Siringo was a real old-west lawman who took a job to chase down rustlers and other low-lifes and ended up plotting to blow up labour organizers. Eventually he couldn't take that element of the task, the defence of unrestricted capitalism by violence, and retired to Hollywood where he found employment as a technical adviser to the William S. Hart Western movies. it is interesting to note that only after Siringo's death was the ground clear for the creation of the more mythic parts of the Wyatt Earp legend. I read the 1977 reprint. ( )
