Speaking Ill of the Dead

Jerks in Montana History

Author-editor Dave Walter and authors Jon Axline, Salina Davis, Jodie Foley, Lyndel Meikle, and Anne Sturdevant carefully document the lives of individuals, associations, and companies and their climbs to the ultimate jerk status. Selected from the increasingly popular Montana History Conference session -- Jerks in Montana History -- this collection of Montana Hall of Shame members includes Montana's first Unabomber Ike Gravelle, the outspoken members of Montana's 1889 Constitutional Convention, and Missoula's Madam Mary Gleim among others. - Back cover.
