Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rugged scenery of the New Mexico Territory formed a dramatic backdrop for get-rich-quick schemes and brazen acts of violence. The cast included serial killers, cattle thieves, train robbers and other evildoers who simply did not know when to quit. Roving bandits like the Black-Jack Ketchum Gang disturbed the peace along with outlaw lawmen like Albuquerque's Milton Yarberry. Donna Blake Birchell recounts the incredible exploits and fantastic tales of New Mexico's shamelessly dangerous characters.
