This fictionalized account of the gunslinger John Wesley Hardin's life is told through the voices of those who met him during his violent 42 years. Relatives, friends, acquaintances, and enemies--in all, a broad spectrum of outlaws, gamblers, and working girls--relate adventures and define Hardin's personality, as well as the flavor of the Old West. Scott Brick, Burt Reynolds, and William Windom portray several of the first-person narratives. Each individual characterization adds realism and drama. Portrayed as a family man, married to Jane Bowen until her death, Hardin is arrogant but brave, and somehow sad. Listeners will enjoy the tales and come to admire him.
