The Circle Dot Cowboys at Dodge City: History and Imagination in Andy Adams's the Log of a Cowboy
Andy Adams's famous 1903 novel, The Log of a Cowboy, includes a chapter set in Dodge City that is an especially interesting example of the mixed fact and fancy that has traditionally characterized western fiction. Remarkably, Adams appears to provide otherwise missing information on Dodge's 1882 experiment in “reform law-enforcement.”
