5.0 out of 5 stars
Superbly researched and written account of early AZ,
By Chipito el Alegre "Chipito el Alegre" (Cheyenne, WY USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ambush at Bloody Run: The Wham Paymaster Robbery of 1889 : A Story of Politics, Religion, Race, and Banditry in Arizona Territory (Paperback)
Written one of the best researchers of Western history, this chronicle of one of the little-known robberies in Arizona history gets more engrossing chapter by chapter. Major Wham escorted an army payroll horseback train that was robbed by locals in southeast Arizona. The locals who were charged were Mormons in an area thick with the LDS, and the region in general was resentful toward the federal government. Local politics and the religious overtones make this a great read.
