Jim Courtright of Fort Worth: His Life and LegendRobert K. Dearment | ISBN: 0875652921 | PDF | 307 pages | 2004 | 6 MB
Timothy Isaiah "Longhair Jim" Courtright operated on both sides of the law and became a legend in his lifetime and after his death. One of the most colorful characters from the wild and woolly days of Fort Worth's Hell's Half Acre, Courtright was at various times city marshal, deputy sheriff, deputy U.S. marshal, private detective, hired killer, and racketeer. Today, he is almost forgotten, either as a gunfighter or a lawman, except in Fort Worth.
This book is a must for all those interested in the legends of the West, its lawmen, and its outlaws.
