Norman, Oklahoma: University of Oklahoma Press, 1976. Third Printing . Trade Paperback. Good. 4 3/4" x 7 1/2. 128 Pages. A 1 1/4 inch bottom corner crease. Taking his title, Pasó Por Aquí, from Juan de Oñate's carving in the living rock of El Morro, New Mexico, Eugene Manlove Rhodes created his own memorial to the decent people of his world who had passed this way without fanfare.

Pat Garrett appears here under his own name and in a favorable… Read More
