Wild Bill Hickok
The never before told story of one of the West's most colorful gunfighting legends—not until the author uncovered the whereabouts of this historical journal, has the true story behind the mystery of Wild Bill Hickok's final days ever been told. Based on the actual journal written in 1876 by Nathan Bernard, is a work of love and respect depicting the man as only one very close to him could. Unknown to many, a diary of the days leading up to Mr. Hickok's death was kept by Bernard, a young Jewish boy from Boston, Massachusetts, who in a few short weeks came to know the legend as well as anyone in the world. Nathan's diary and the memories told to his son, James, and grandson, Butler, are the basis of this book.
