Tom Horn Blood on the Moon
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
An exceptional documentary dealing with one of Wyoming's most notorious citizens, one that reads like a novel. Although much has been written about Tom Horn, Chip Carlson has done an excellent job of presenting new facts and information furthing adding to the controversey over Horn's guilt in the murder of young Willie Nickell.
Portrait of a rogue

Chip Carlson has established himself as the most prolific and knowledgeable Tom Horn buff since Dean Krakel, and his work is extraordinarily readable. To understand a true American (choose your own term) outlaw, rogue, bounty hunter, lawman, Westerner ... whatever ... pick up Carlson's work, which is full of the grittiness that haunts the legend of Horn.

Chip Carlson is a master historian-storyteller, whose definitive account of the notorious Tom Horn's later years is a "must" for anyone seriously interested about the dark side of the Old West. In fact, perusing Carlson's work is like eating peanuts; first you read one page, then two and, before you know it, you've consumed the entire book.
