    Just this video alone introduced me to Mr Siringo and mustered a respect for the frontiersman. Ive already placed two of his books in my basket online.

      We're honored to have made the introduction! Enjoy his works -- he was quite the storyteller himself.

    Really good video.
    What could make a Southerner join the Pinkertons on the first place boggles the mind. Be nothing but trouble. A man cannot live well in two worlds.
    Siringos life is proof of this.
    His books are top notch. He was a hellava man for sure. Pinkerton or not.

    • @footprintsofthefrontier

      A very fair analysis! And we agree about the writing. Wish he would have written more. Appreciate the feedback, Travis!

      Any book of his in particular worth the read? I'm looking to buy personal writings from the Frontier times.

    I was thinking that it was Tom Horn and Frank Canton who said, that Charlie Siringo was a poor Lawman and tracker. I maybe getting my lawmen mixed up. That was during the time Tom Horn was a pinkerton, before he became a hitman.

    I think a good follow up to this is a famous gunslinger. I’m certain there are similarities but also differences to both gunslingers and gunfighters.

    • @footprintsofthefrontier
      @footprintsofthefrontier  Год назад +1

      Thanks for all of the feedback! Nat Love was definitely more of a "slinger" than a "fighter," so check out that video if you haven't already! We'll definitely have some more videos like that in the near future.

    This is a good video but it neglected to mention the role of Frank Stewart, who also worked for the LX and was a friend of Siringo. Stewart would go on to lead a contingent of cowboys who eventually joined with Siringo and his group who were also searching for Billy the Kid. Stewart was hired as a stock detective of the Canadian River Cattlemens Association (which became the Panhandle-Plains Cattlemens Association) and the two posses joined with Pat Garrett to finally corner the Kid and his gang at Stinking Spring in December, 1880. They captured the Kid and his gang and took them to Las Vegas, Santa Fe (for the reward), resulting in the Kid finally landing in the jail at Lincoln, New Mexico where they Kid escaped. See newly uncovered information in the book, "Chasing Billy the Kid: Frank Stewart and the Untold Story of the Manhunt for William H. Bonney" (2022).

      "Fights with a gun is a gun fighter" pretty much says it all right there, what would you prefer it be called? Lol

    Confusing? Being "sent away to public school" sounds more like what Americans call Private School. American 'Public' schools in the days prior to 1900 were generally parochial schools run by the various relitions and private educators It was not until much later that the Protestant and Hebrews fourd it much less expensive to lobby the states for Public Education paid for by taxes on everyone, not just the tuitions of the parishioners.

    Respectively, try to use pictures of the era rather than photos of a desk with a calculator on it. I doubt the photos are authentic.

    Calling every man west of the Mississippi a "gunfighter" is just silly and not at all true. You are definitely misusing the term.

  • @eagleman1542

    Siringo had a genealogy more akin to a boy from the Bronx or Brooklyn than a Texan. Intriguing background story, nonetheless.

  • @swhip897

    You should have mentioned the vast population never shot a gun in anger nor defense. Gun fighting was the exception, not the norm.

    I thought a gun fighter was someone who made a living off of his gun. I don't think protecting your ranch made you a gun fighter.

    Too much modern video footage and photos which completely take away from the story. Also a lot of your facts are wrong . Grade F for your episodes !
