Book Review of Frontier Justice in the Wild West: Bungled, Bizarre, and Fascinating Executions

Frontier Justice in the Wild West: Bungled, Bizarre, and Fascinating Executions
MSCOZY avatar reviewed on


I just love reading about the Old West and outlaws. Here are 18 interesting accounts of execution in the days of the Wild West, when justice was swift. The means of execution vary with the majority being hanged. You are also told about some of the botched hangings and why they happened as well as how it ended. There are some pictures as well as a bibliography and index.

Recommended for those who like enjoy tales of the Wild West.
