Did Tom Horn kill Willie Nickell? He was a death sentence to rustlers and the devil incarnate to homesteaders in late nineteenth-century Wyoming.
Did Tom Horn commit the 1901 murder of the fourteen-year-old son of a sheep-owning homesteader who had stolen from the cattle barons ranges? If not, who did?
Cheyenne author Chip Carlson, in this, his third book, answers these questions and others with the monumental results of more than ten years of research into primary sources.
Who were Tom Horn s other victims? Was there collusion on the part of three governors in two Colorado murders? How could the jury return a verdict of guilty in Tom Horn s trial in the face of evidence that someone else was the killer? Why did Tom Horn s parents flee to Canada? Was there jury tampering and bribery? Why did Tom Horn say I would kill him and be done with him? What was the role of schoolteacher Glendolene Kimmell, and where did she end her years?
Tom Horn, the most notorious of Wyoming s range detectives and a pre-eminent name in Wyoming history, operated unchecked until he was arrested for the murder of Willie Nickell. The murder and questionable nature of Horn s conviction still ignite firestorms of controversy in Wyoming.
Before he was hanged Horn said, I have lived about fifteen ordinary lives. I would like to have had somebody who saw my past and could picture it to the public. It would be the most god damn interesting reading in the country. Now author Chip Carlson provides that reading.

Tom Horn Blood on the Moon eBook Chip Carlson Reviews
Great story and hard to find.
Well written book about the last of the cowboy's and being railroaded to his death.
This book seems to be very well researched and written.
In the past I've read a lot about Tom Horn and his trial/hanging. However, I learned a lot more from reading this book. Actually, this is the first book that I've read on this subject that points strongly to the real culprit in the shooting of the boy.
That wasn't that long ago
... for those who are interested in western history. Was Tom Horn inocent of the crime for which he was executed? Probably. Was he a fine, upstanding gentleman who never commited any heinous acts? Absolutely not. The book is well written and well researched and very interesting for those who are interested in such things.
Wonderfully researched, that fills in the fascinating details concerning the legendary Tom Horn, a simple Cowboy with an amazing story to tell. Well worth the price of admission, highly recommend.
I buy every Tom Horn book I can find. This is a good one.
