There were many a western story published – the common ones about Cowboys and Indians are listed on Ebay every day but the rarer ones about the the pioneer west are seldom found.

Here’s one of ‘em. Following my retirement, I have dedicated my remaining hours to indexing the Genealogy of our western heroes. During my research, I discovered that thousands of our kinfolk lay unfound and unrecognized on some book dealer’s shelf gathering dust. Because Old Western History and Memorabilia was printed before computer indexing, I index every item I sell. This complete index will be bound and included in this offering at no additional cost. Humbly, I am trying to keep our history alive. I hope you appreciate the effort. “KILLING JIM” MILLER By Richard Rescorla Folks, sooner or later - Genealogists are going to realize that their family kinfolks are laying on some dealer's dusty shelves.
