1896319981Seguin TX: Smith & Moore 1896. First edition first issue. 144 pp. 12mo. Original printed card covers. Toning to the text as usual. Very good. First edition first issue. 144 pp. 12mo. Autobiography of one of the most famous Texas outlaws. In the first issue a woodcut of Hardin's brother Joe appears on page three misidentified as John Wesley Hardin; in later issues a full-page portrait of Hardin has been inserted in its place. While some question the authenticity of this narrative as autobiography Adams notes that Hardin was not an illiterate gun slinger: "Hardin was not as illiterate as many believed; he taught frontier school as a young man and his study of the law while he was in prison no doubt improved his education."
