The dust jacket says it all. "This is one of the earliest 'outlaw' biographies of the Southwest, first issued in 1862. . Here is the life of Sam Calhoun, who ran away from his eastern life as a boy, fell in with evil companions at New Orleans; went to Texas and became a Texas Ranger in 1857; and in 1858 started as a guard on rich ore caravans from the Patagonia mines in southeastern Arizona, going to Mexico City. In the next few years he fought the Apaches, battled Mexican guerrillas, and himself committed every crime in the book. By 1860 he was homesick and went back to the States, arriving just as the Civil War began. He joined the 2nd Kentucky Regiment, killed a farmer on a foraging expedition and he was executed after court martial. Capt. J. H. Greene took down Calhoun's life story in the prison.". Not Signed.

A limited edition of no more than 700 copies published by Jack Rittenhouse in Santa Fe; a new edition of a book originally published in 1862. Fine minus book with touch of shelf wear to bottom edges, in a Fine dust jacket. This is an unusual, little book (about 7 by 5 inches) for a number of reasons. Rittenhouse established his small press originally in Texas, and moved it to Santa Fe in 1962. He published a number of award-winning titles until 1968, when he joined the University of New Mexico Press as an editor. This copy has the bookplate of L. Boyd Finch on the front end page. Finch was a newspaper reporter and photographer for papers in Arizona and California, before becoming an Assistant to Interior Secretary Stewart Udall during the Kennedy Administration. In Tucson after retirement he wrote several books, including Legacies of Camelot, and also numerous articles for the Arizona Historical Society.
