About the book: (From the dust jacket) LOST MINES of the OLD WEST: CORONADO's CHILDREN J. FRANK DOBIE: More thrilling than any fictitious adventure tale is this true story of those who, for four centuries, have sought treasure in the fabulous lost mines of the South-west of America. Told with vigor, gusto and authority, it is a fascinating saga of the lengths to which man will go in his search for gold. This fascinating cavalcade of the South-west, from the time of Coronado down to today, presents a thousand exciting incidents in which pirates, outlaws, cowboys, rangers, miners, preachers, doctors, farmers, and gold-thirsty women, all play their parts. Generations of men have disemboweled mountains, drained lakes and turned rivers out of their courses; countless lives have been lost and unbelievable hardships endured-all in search of gold. In this book they pass before the reader in thrilling procession-gold-hungry adventurers, hoping, believing, striving, fighting-the mad horde of Coronado's children.

It is complete and accurate, and the illustrations are from actual photographs. In this book Everett Lloyd has written a fair, impartial and genuinely entertaining biography of a man whose life has largely been lost in enigma; one about whom many laughable stories have been told and printed. Here for the first time all the Roy Bean stories, in addition to all the facts of his life and career have been brought together in permanent form. Every fact pertaining to the life of Roy Bean will be found in this volume. XX [Wikipedia] Phantly Roy Bean Jr. (c. 1825 - March 16, 1903) was an American saloonkeeper and Justice of the Peace in Val Verde County, Texas, who called himself "The Only Law West of the Pecos." He held court in his saloon along the Rio Grande in a desolate stretch of the Chihuahuan Desert. Legend records his jurisprudence as thoroughly abnormal and in many instances comical. Although remembered as a hanging judge who said "hang 'em first and try 'em later," he never had anyone hanged.
