The autobiography of Frank ÒPistol PeteÓ Eaton, a oneÐtime cowboy, scout, Indian fighter, trail rider, and Deputy United States Marshall. At the age of 15, the post commander at Fort Gibson dubbed Eaton ÒPistol PeteÓ when he outshot everyone at the fort. As a youth, Eaton avenged his fatherÕs death when he was shot in cold blood by the Campseys and Ferbers, former Confederates who called themselves Regulators. EatonÕs colloquial narrative offers a vivid portrait of the Old West; a colorful, humorous, violent, and moving picture of law and lawlessness in Indian Territory.
