Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. Hardcover and dust jacket. Tears to jacket with heavy loss. Dust jacket in protective mylar cover. Good binding and cover. Shelf wear. Pages unmarked. xix, 299 p., ill., 21 cm. Captain William J. Howard was breveted captain in the Mexican war. He was one of the twenty men appointed in 1853 by Gov. Bigler to suppress the lawlessness then rife. These men, later known as the California Rangers, were selected by a special act of the legislature empowering the governor to appoint this civil guard. It was at this time that the famous bandit, Joaquin Murietta, was terrorizing the southern part of the State, and things had come to such a pass that it became absolutely necessary that Murietta be captured. A reward of $3,00 was offered for the body of the Mexican desperado. Murietta, as Capt. Howard tells the story, had become the leader of a band which stopped at nothing. Several murders were charged against him; he was accused of horse stealing and other serious offenses in the category of crime were chalked up against him.
