Gulick, a Northwest history writer with 30 books to his credit including Roll On, Columbia and Chief Joseph Country , maintains that the Northwest has its share of interesting outlaws, and if
only it would have had the likes of Twain, Bret Harte, Max Brand, and Zane Grey, instead of the area's batch of uninteresting chroniclers, Northwest outlaws would have put their region on the
map. To remedy the situation, Gulick brings the works of the Northwest's uninteresting chroniclers out from the archives, and in an attempt to make them interesting, edits, filters, and
condenses them. Outlaws discussed include Chief Bigfoot, Ferd Patterson, Richard Bogle, Josephine Wolf, Henry Plummer, and Harry Orchard. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
