Factual account of the first black Deputy U.S. Marshal to work for Judge Issiac Parker, the reputed "hanging judge" in Fort Smith, Ark. Bass Reeves was over 6 ft. tall, an expert shot, an acknowledged tracker, and he almost always got his man, no matter how long it took. Bad men avoided him when they could.
