About this listen
A fascinating, true-life memoir of an undercover agent in the wild, wild West of the late 1800s!
After years of cowboying, Charles A. Siringo settled down in Caldwell, Kansas to run a store—until an acquaintance told him that he was "cut out" for detective work. Thereupon, Siringo joined the Pinkerton National Detective Agency, where he worked for more than twenty years.
A Cowboy Detective chronicles Siringo's adventures as an undercover operative in the wilder parts of the West, where he rode with the lawless and escaped violent death more than a few times. Using more guises than Sherlock Holmes, he survived labor riots in Idaho, hounded moonshiners in the Appalachians, and infiltrated Butch Cassidy's Wild Bunch as an outlaw on the run for murder!
