It has some information on stagecoach robberies, Wild Bill Hickock and Joseph Slade." Six Guns 1897. Howes R434, Streeter 3117. Provides a detailed and vivid account of the Overland Stage Company and the Pony Express, offering firsthand anecdotes, frontier sketches, and biographical notices of key figures involved in stage and mail transport across the plains during the mid-19th century. Of particular value for its early documentation of the Butterfield Overland Despatch and Ben Holladay's stage empire, The Overland Stage to California stands as a cornerstone work in the historiography of Western transportation and the opening of the American frontier. A.S. Hughes appears in this book as one of the pioneers in the service of the overland stage line. A handwritten inscription on the title page reads "G. Hughes from A.S. Hughes Xmas 1901" A gift to Gerald Hughes from his brother A. S. Hughes who, interestingly has blacked out a section of the index about himself that reads "is routed out by his father and sent back East to college; later returns to the West and on the plains".

Contact seller5-star seller[HICKOK, "WILD BILL"]. Includes: 1). 44 pages of Handwritten Notes for this book, (in ink, and most on paper 5.5" x 8.5"); 2.) 7 Original Letters to Connelley concerning Wild Bill (4 typed, 3 handwritten, together 13 pages) plus 2 carbons of typed responses by Connelly, and boldly signed by Connelley---two of the letters are fro…m A. D. McCandless, the son of Dave McCandless, famous for the Rock Creek incident; 3.) Approximately 181 pages of typed chapter drafts and notes for the book, many with handwritten corrections and additions, some quite extensive. As he has stated in the book, William E. Connelley spent 42 years gathering material for the book, WILD BILL AND HIS ERA. As Secretary of the Kansas State Historical Society, he had access to a rich store of information about Hickok, and he personally interviewed many who knew Wild Bill. In publishing his book, he hoped "to give an authoritative history of 'Wild Bill' Hickok." Connelley died in July, 1930, leaving an extensive, unpublished manuscript. His daughter, Mrs. Edith Connelley Clift, had assisted him with the manuscript, and was compelled to finish it and have it published. She wrote the last few chapters, and ultimately left much of her father's notes and manuscript unpublished. As she said in the Editor's Note for the book, "Much that is valuable has been removed, and much that was left has been condensed." As his daughter stated, much that her father had prepared in his manuscript went unpublished, including much interesting and important information. Of this archive, some of this manuscript is exactly as was printed in the book, and much shows an evolution of changes reflected in multiple copies of the same, yet each showing a succession of changes. Of the typescript portion, much went unpublished, and are noted with handwritten notation of it being "Discarded", showing chapter from which it was discarded. A search of bookseller's catalog and auction records shows that one other typed copy of this manuscript has been offered before---by the Eberstadts in catalogue 134:54 in the 1950's, and purchased by Coe for Yale University, describing the work; "The original, complete author's typed manuscript of the only definitive life of Wild Bill. The work is largely unpublished, although some of the material was used in the noted historian's much-abridged book WILD BILL AND HIS ERA, 1933." This manuscript, now in Yale, was a typed carbon copy without any manuscript notations or corrections. Our archive is in very good condition, and protected in a two-inch 3-ring binder. Connelley's extensive handwritten notes and notations lend great value and a special uniqueness to this archive.

No Binding. Condition: Collectible-Very Good. Original collection of eight correspondence letters between Meredith T. Moore and William E. Connelley and three documents from the State Historical Society of Wisconsin. 1907-1910. Jefferson City, Missouri and Topeka, Kansas. Page dimensions range between about 5 1/2" x 8 3/4" and 8…" x 11 3/4" but most of the correspondence is letter size. Twenty-nine pages, complete. Five addressed envelopes, complete. With the exception of one leaf, the letters on written on one side of the paper. Eleven of the pages are on very fragile (poor-quality) paper. These pages have archival document tape repair. The remaining pages are very clean and intact but have slight splitting at the fold lines. William E. Connelley (1855-1930) was a well-known historian on the American West. He wrote a number of books and contributed to many periodicals. In the early 1900s, he conducted research on the true identity of Josiah Ramsay (or Ramsey), who, as a youth in Virginia during the 1750s, was kidnapped by Native Americans. Ramsay later lived in Kentucky and Tennessee. Meredith T. Moore, a veteran of the Mexican-American War, was married to a descendant of Ramsay. In these letters, Moore passes along information about Josiah Ramsay to Connelley. The documents from the State Historical Society of Wisconsin also discuss Ramsay and related histories such as the Nickojack Campaign. Letters from Moore are handwritten and signed by him in pencil. Connelley's and the State Historical Society's correspondence are typed in black ink. Also included is a list of surviving veterans from the Mexican-American War that Moore sent to Connelley.

Condition: Very Good. A collection of volumes, notes, TLS, and drafts relating to William Connelley's "Wild Bill and His Era" with a total of seven items. Overall very good with light sunning to spine of book and light toning and foxing to notes and typed drafts. Items in this collection include: 1) "Wild Bill and His Era - The…Life & Adventures of James Butler Hickok" by William Esley Connelley, Late Secretary of the Kansas State Historical Society with Introduction by Charles Moreau Harger; New York, Press of the Pioneers, 1933; red cloth boards with gilt lettering on front and spine, 8vo, 229pp; housed in a red and black cloth clamshell box. 2) A custom-made book of duplicated letters, statements and notes collected by William Connelley for his book about Wild Bill. The book has textured red boards with manuscript title label and is bound with string; 170pp. The "duplicate book," as it is titled, is typed and has page numbers and a table of contents. The letters and notes found within contain recollections and accounts of Wild Bill from friends, family and acquaintances. Signed by Connelley on the first leaf in which he has also written in manuscript: "In this duplicate volume the pages do not correspond with the pages in the Original No. 1. In the Original some documents were included of which no copies were made for this volume - William Connelley." A few notes in pencil are also found throughout the book including underlining the account of how Wild Bill got his name (page 77). 3) Early typed draft of Chapter VI, "Wild Bill Kills McCanles" from Wild Bill and His Era, having 44pp with many manuscript annotations in margins and on small sheets of paper attached to draft. 4) Later typed draft of Chapter VI, "Wild Bill Kills McCanles" from Wild Bill and His Era, lengthened to 54pp, fewer manuscript annotations but still some in ink, pencil and colored pencil. 5) Two carbon copies of latest drafts of Chapter VI, "Wild Bill Kills McCanles" from Wild Bill and His Era, each having 39pp and same content, and have no annotations. None of these seem to be the final draft, as the published work includes and excludes content found in these drafts (final published work includes introductory and concluding paragraphs and excludes a couple of detailed accounts seen in the drafts). 6) TLS from Wendell W. McCanles, grandson of David McCanles to Pioneer Press about the chapter regarding his grandfather in Connelley's book. 7) TLS from Rufus Rockwell Wilson to Mrs. Edith Connelley Clift on Pioneer Press letterhead concerning the limited edition printing (dated to October 10, 1932). These items are housed in a black cloth slipcase. An interesting look into Connelley's writing process and the captivating world of Wild Bill Hickok. Please call for more images. ; B & W Illustrations; Signed by Author.
