Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. McCarty, John L. Maverick Town: The Story of Old Tascosa. Norman: University of Oklahoma Press, 1946. First Edition. 8vo. xiii, 277, [3] pp. Frontispiece, illustrations, map. Original publisher's tan cloth, lettered and decorated in red on spine and front board with a pict…orial vignette of a mounted cowboy on the front cover; top edge stained red. Condition: Very Good. Cloth is clean and bright with light shelf wear; spine lettering crisp and unfaded. Mild rubbing to extremities, with minor bumping to the spine ends and corner tips. A few scattered faint spots to the spine and rear board. Text block clean and tight, hinges sound. Top edge stain still vivid red. Without dust jacket. A solid, presentable copy of the true first edition. The standard history of Tascosa, the Panhandle's most notorious frontier cow town. McCarty drew on the recollections of surviving Tascosa figures and on his own background as editor of the Dalhart Texan to assemble what remains the foundational treatment of the town's brief, violent flowering and its decline after the railroad bypassed it. Of particular interest for the LS, LIT, and XIT ranch material, the 1886 Tascosa gunfight, and the era's tensions between large outfits and small-pasture men. Listed in Jenkins, Cracker Barrel Chronicles (3624) and Herd (1371). Harold D. Bugbee (illustrator).

Paperback. Condition: New. Once the rival of Dodge City and Cheyenne, for years Tascosa, Texas, lay a ghost town of crumbling adobes. Today almost all traces of frontier Tascosa are gone, replaced by the ultramodern stone buildings which make up a self-contained city of boys and administrative staff - Cal Farley's famed Boys Ran…ch.Maverick Town tells the story of the rise and decline of Old Tascosa, which epitomized the romance and danger of the early West. Tascosa's heyday was brief, yet it compressed into a few years the history of an era - that of the open range - which will never return.
