Whisperin’ Jim Smith was a deputy and railroad detective who
was said to have written more red history with his pistol than any two men of his time, who had enough dead outlaws to his credit to start a fair-sized
graveyard. Despite having a bestselling novel and several movies bearing his name, Whisperin’ Jim remains a relatively unknown figure. Join me today as we discuss a man who a contemporary described as the “very incarnation of a relentless, inexorable, indomitable, avenging Nemesis.” Also discussed are Bat Masterson, Pat Garrett, and horse thief extraordinaire Doc Middleton.
