Reseña del libro "John King Fisher - King of the Nueces Strip (en Inglés)"
John King Fisher - King of the Nueces Strip From a Stock Marshal to cattle rustler to Deputy Sheriff, King Fisher was the undisputed ruler of the rough border brasada inhabited by outlaws of every description known as the "Nueces Strip." Even the famed Texas Rangers were fearful of his grip: IT IS A REIGN OF TERROR FROM THE MEN WHO INFEST THIS REGION. ...THE WHITE CITIZENS ARE ALL FRIENDS OF KING FISHER. THERE IS A REGULARLY ORGANIZED BAND OF DESPERADOES FROM GOLIAD TO THE HEADWATERS OF THE NUECES. THIS BAND IS MADE UP OF MEN WHO HAVE COMMITTED CRIMES IN OTHER STATES AND FLED FOR REFUGE HERE, WHERE THEY GO TO ROBBING FOR A LIVING. Flamboyant, he was described as wearing "a tres piedras sombrero, with a solid gold coiled rattler for the band and gold tassels. His shirt was of that heavy Mexico City silk, opened at the throat; and a silk, red bandanna was knotted around his neck." His pistols were nickel-plated Colt .45's and he knew how to use them, killing over a dozen men during his life as a bandit chieftain, later turned lawman. Known as one of the best pistol fighters of his day, John King Fisher has remained an enigma in the chronicles of the Western Frontier. While other gun fighters have achieved notoriety through the stories told in the pulp magazines and newspapers of the day, John King Fisher has been largely ignored. Fisher was credited with killing a string of men during his lifetime and the mere mention of his name was usually enough to sober up a drunken opponent or cause a sober man to contemplate his own epitaph. Oddly enough, Fisher was not a cold-blooded murder, but rather stand-up gun fighter that faced his adversaries in a winner-take-all shootout. Thoroughly researched and documented, this is John King Fisher's astounding true story. Readers' Favorite - 5-star review
