This picture book tells the story of Bass Reeves, a man who was born a slave and became a sheriff in the Wild West before Oklahoma became a state. Reeves really seems like an incredible man; my issue with this book was how flippantly Native Americans were referred to, as well as murder/death - “he ONLY killed 14 people!“ 😳 This just didn't seem like appropriate content for a picture book. What I enjoyed the most were the illustrations.
I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it (some I‘ve had so long I don‘t even remember why!). Feel free to join in!

My summer list! My list for #14books14weeks2023. These are all my personal books. Some have been on my TBR list forever. I am starting with Tombstone. My son just graduated from high school. He loves Westerns, and Tombstone is his fav. We leave in 2 weeks for Vegas, Zion, the Grand Canyon, Phoenix, and of course a stop in Tombstone. Thanks for hosting @TheHeartlandBookFairy !

His best friend found him in the driveway he was on way to the barn most likely and medical examiner said either heart attack or heart stopped due to lack of oxygen due to his copd seconds after he walked by the door he was laying out there for a couple hours and I feel
pickI adore this series. Nice cleanser. I love the one liners and the brothers. Diana was a good addition to this book. Love the place and times. It‘s a good western without being too much of a western.
pickTom Clavin writes very entertaining books on history. With a specific focus on the history of the Wild West and WW2. Often with his writing partner Bob Drury. They read more like novels than dry books on history. I enjoy their writing styles. This book on Tombstone not only covers the infamous gunfight and it‘s aftermath. But a good history of the Earps and the town itself. As well as good histories of the other characters.
