Review title: Plenty of research - wish more time had been spent on the writing!
Product review: Chip Carlson has certainly done his research for this book. Unfortunately, he hasn't brought it all together in a cohesive and readable manner. His narrative often meanders on tangents that are superfluous to the story, filled with anecdotes and trivia, that while demonstrating Carlson's keen grasp of his subject matter, add little to the story of Tom Horn. If you are looking for a first-read about Tom Horn, this is not the book for you. On a positive note, the book does have a good collection of vintage photographs of many of the personalities and settings involved in the Tom Horn saga.
