Description: Condition is good overall for its age. Ex library copy. Please see photos for detailed condition This is the true story of Jack Slade the only man in the his- tory of the United States to have been sentenced to death for com- mitting a misdemeanor. Actual- ly, he was hanged by the society of which he was unable to be- come a part, so was regarded as its enemy. To the Vigilantes, Slade's death was a trumpet warning to other and lesser men that a new social order, founded in the protection of human rights and human dignity, had come to Montana Territory. To the less violent minority, it was murder. Here is the factual, gripping account of those exciting times a hundred years ago when vigilante justice was meted to a man of tremendous power and unflinching courage - but who was born too late.
