{"product_id":"9780940666344","title":"Incredible Elfego Baca: Good man, bad man of the old West","description":"In this book Bryan has turned his talents to the story of one of the most   extraordinary characters of the Southwest. Legend and folk hero Elfego Baca,   who was born in 1865 and died in 1945, is best remembered for singlehandedly   withstanding a siege by an estimated 80 Texas cowboys who fired a reported   4,000 shots without even wounding him. In this lively and well-researched   account, Bryan explores the facts and legends surrounding Baca's long and   varied career. A gunfighter and ruffian who was three times tried for and   acquitted of murder charges, Baca could not seem to stay out of trouble. Yet   he earned a respectable reputation as a lawyer, sheriff, mayor, district   attorney, and a perennial candidate for state and federal office. His   temperament—volatile, generous, loyal, devious, unscrupulous, and   violent--earned him a host of friends, enemies, and reluctant admirers. This   remarkable man was the subject of a Walt Disney television series titled \"The   Nine Lives of Elfego Baca.\"  ","brand":"Clear Light Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47022900871408,"sku":"9780940666344","price":22.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780940666344_p0.jpg?v=1763873389","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780940666344","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
