The code of chivalry, a standard of honor between men and of loyalty and decency between a girl and a man. When Georgiana Stockwell came to the Tonto Basin from the East she had heard neither of chivalry nor of loyalty, she cared only to have the attention of as many men as possible—and to have her own way with them.

′An extremely accessible, well structured and imaginative reading of market and social theory in terms of the myth of the Wild West frontier′ New Formations This book, written by the author of the celebrated volume Six Guns and Society, explains why the myth of the Wild West is popular around the world. It shows how the cultural icon of the Wild West speaks to deep desires of individualism and liberty and offers a vision of social contract theory in which a free and equal individual (the cowboy) emerges from the state of nature (the wilderness) to build a civil society (the frontier community). The metaphor of the Wild West retained a commitment to some limited government (law and order) but rejected the notion of the fully codified state as too oppressive (the corrupt sheriff). Compelling and magnificently suggestive, the book unpacks one of the core icons of our time. It is a unique discussion of market and social theory using cultural myth. Will Wright fully explores how issues of individualism, freedom and inequality in the myth of the Wild West connect up with questions of white, male superiority and environmental degradation.

True stories of sheriffs, marshals, rangers, and others in frontier law enforcement who fought to bring order to the lawless West—includes photos. Faced with ruthless criminals, trigger-happy gunslingers and assorted desperados, the lawmen of the Old West tried, and sometimes died, in their efforts to bring some semblance of order to their towns and communities. This book introduces more than thirty of them, from familiar names like Wyatt Earp and Bat Masterson to lesser-known figures from Dallas Stoudenmire, John Selman, and Bass Reeves. Some at the time believed that former criminals would make the most effective lawmen. Consequently, notorious gunfighters might be employed as town marshals to bring law and order to some of the most lawless of towns. These lawmen had to deal with the likes of the Dalton Gang, the James Brothers, and the Rufus Buck Gang, who thought nothing of raping and murdering innocent people just for the hell of it. These outlaws would frequently hide in Indian Territory, where there was no law to extradite them. The only law outside of Indian Territory was that of Judge Isaac Parker, who administered the rules with an iron fist; the gallows at Fort Smith laid testament to his work. The requirements needed to be a peace officer in the Wild West were often determined only by the individual’s skill with a gun and their courage. At times judgment was needed with only seconds to spare, and that also meant there was the odd occasion where justice and law never quite meant the same thing. The expression ‘justice without law’ was never truer than in the formative years of the West—and this book tells that story.

If you watch old western movies, one theme is repeated over and over: bringing Law and Order to the Wild West. That order was almost always imposed by the use of guns. Often, the town council would vote to restrict certain activities, but that did not bring order. They would then let it be known that a certain town was looking for a 'hired gun' to enforce the laws that a certain class of 'outlaw' refused to obey. This hired gun would shoot a few people and at the end of the movie, everyone is shown shopping and walking about in peace. In American history, Guns and Laws are considered synonymous. Even, as I write, President Biden warned the people who resist the new laws or seek to protest such laws to remember one thing: The President has F-16s and the people protesting the laws do not. In the eyes of the rulers, Wild America has replaced the Wild West. The solution remains the same: who gets to hire the gun? When the outlaws get to hire the gun, a nation is in trouble. Think about it: laws have no meaning beyond the methods used to enforce those laws. In the Old West, the town folks required the person hired to have a quicker draw than those resisting the law. In early America, as illustrated in the First Amendment, the people and the government were to be equal in the ownership of 'guns.' It was considered obvious that if one side had a monopoly on guns or who had the superior means to kill people, then that side could produce a totalitarian legal order: there was nothing anyone could do to resist it. No one can ever vote a tyrant out of office: a law requiring him to leave office is meaningless if he has bigger guns or a monopoly on guns. In fact, as I write, the government is producing killer drones that can seek out any person that it has been instructed to search out and destroy. No gun can counter a killer bot. History is the story of man's attempt to establish laws and enforce some kind of order based upon those laws. The questions never change: Who gets to make the laws and who gets to enforce the laws? That is the real battle in our world. Everything else are mere deceptions to gain power. Democracy means the people get to make the laws: Does anyone really believe that?
