{"product_id":"wyomings-territorial-sheriffs","title":"Wyoming's Territorial Sheriffs","description":"\u003cp\u003eOutlaws names are remembered and recorded  but little is known or written of the men who were faced with upholding the law. Wyoming s territorial sheriffs were courageous and handy with a gun and rope.  Nathaniel Boswell  T. Jeff Carr  and Jim Rankin were brave and colorful. Frank Canton lived on both sides of the law. Joseph Young was called a coward. Bill Jaycox left town without an explanation.  The majority of the men who enforced the law were average citizens who carried out the routine duties of office. Some served in a time of high adventure; some were not as brave as others; some drank too much; and others were escaping shadowy pasts; some rose to the occasion when faced with adversity. Others arranged to be out of town. As Gorzalka chronicles the life of each of the fifty-five sheriffs in Wyoming s territorial days their successes  failures  and motivation the stories combine to create the era s history. Includes photos of most of the sheriffs.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44949455896629,"sku":"ByrdShop_093127138X","price":31.57,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780931271380_90868fd8-ac5d-4e39-8674-7c1461fd5c1a.jpg?v=1770590465","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/wyomings-territorial-sheriffs","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
