Synopsis
He may be little known today, but Ben Daniels was a feared gunman who typified the journeyman gunfighter every bit as much as those whose names have become legend. Yet his story has eluded researchers and yarn-spinners alike--until now. Two prominent western historians have teamed up to tell the story of Ben Daniels's rise from outlaw and convict to presidential protégé and high-ranking officer of the law. Tracing his life from jailhouse to White House, from Dodge City to San Juan Hill, Robert DeArment and Jack DeMattos present a full-length biography of Daniels, the most controversial of Teddy Roosevelt's "White House Gunfighters." The book faithfully traces Daniels's early years, the time he spent in the Wyoming Territorial Penitentiary, his rebirth as a Dodge City lawman--including the controversy over his shooting a man in the back--and his part in the Battle of Cimarron. Following military service with the Rough Riders in the Spanish-American War, Daniels was appointed by President Roosevelt as U.S. marshal for turbulent Arizona Territory. Daniels was as quick with his mind as with a gun, but he had a rough ride to redemption. This original biography belongs on the shelf of every gunfighter buff and anyone interested in the broader story of the Old West. It rescues Daniels from the footnotes of history and shows us the amazing life of one of the West's most intriguing gunmen., He may be little known today, but Ben Daniels was a feared gunman who typified the journeyman gunfighter every bit as much as those whose names have become legend.

  • An Important Biography, But With No Lasting Impression!

    As I devoured this obscure story, all I could think was, DeArment has done it again- found a gold nugget on the prairie, where nobody thought to look, and he had the talent and good sense to pick it up and prove once again how the American West is some kind of inexhaustible honey hole of stories, many worthy of these writer's talents and our time to read them. Good job, to both chefs who made the stew. Ben was a good-hearted, "hail fellow- well met" with criminals and politicians alike, who seemed to be comfortable on both sides of the law, as long as he had buddies to hang with. Buddies who ranged from Dutch Henry Born, rustler chieftain on one end, to Bat Masterson and Teddy Roosevelt on the other end. I was not convinced that Ben Daniels actually achieved any measure of redemption, but ...
