Beschreibung:
JERRY THOMPSON is Regents and Piper Professor of History at Texas A&M International University in Laredo. He is the author or editor of numerous award-winning books, including Cortina: Defending the Mexican Name in Texas, and Tejano Tiger: Jose de los Santos Benavides and the History of the Texas-Mexico Borderlands, 1823-1891.
In western New Mexico in 1905 there rode a notorious outlaw from the Mexican border named Henry Coleman. With a Colt .45 strapped to his hip, Coleman (alias Street Hudspeth from the well-to-do Texas family) came to be either despised as a deceitful rustler and ruthless murderer or admired as a man of honor and great courage, a popular and charismatic cowman who was fast with a gun. No one seemed indifferent.
