The frontier lawman Bat Masterson spent the last two decades of his life as a sports editor in New York. He and his wife set out to revisit the west where he became a legend, only to discover that now there are wheat farmers and Prohibition--and an effort to blot out the Wild West of the past.

"In 1919, legendary gunfighter Bat Masterson is a 64-year-old New York City sportswriter who suddenly becomes worried about the inglorious and mostly false reputation he has endured for decades... The journey is a hoot when the old lawman finds out the public wants the legend, not the truth.... This is classic Wheeler, a solid story about real people told with wit, compassion, and a bit of whimsy." --Publishers Weekly

This novel won a Spur Award from Western Writers of America in 2000.
