Neither a fictional biography of notorious Texas gunman John Wesley Hardin nor an actual one, Reflections in Dark Glass is based on the personal reminiscences of individuals who knew Hardin best. The book deals with relationships and details not found in the existing literature about the life of Hardin and covers the period from his boyhood to the killing of Deputy Sheriff Charlie Webb in 1874, an altercation which brought about Hardin’s incarceration in 1878 in the state penitentiary in Huntsville, Texas.

Letter laid in from prev owner to cartoonist and grassroots historian Jack Jackson of Austin, discussing this book and other Hardin material. "A revisionist history of John Wesley Hardin, a Texas gunman who in his lifetime killed more than 40 men. It is told from three points of view, one of them being his black wet nurse. Hardin is presented as a hero fighting to preserve Southern values following the defeat in the Civil War. It is a departure from the usual historical accounts, which portray Hardin as a cold-blooded killer. ". Seller Inventory # 000383
