Book Description

Bat Masterson spent the last 19 years of his life living in New York City. He wrote three articles a week in a New York City Newspaper in which he penned over 4 million words about his life, the world, the wild west, sports, America, Laws, and especially in his last year of life-1921...about Boxing! His sense of humor rings out in his writings as well as his sense of justice, against the Volstead Act and Prohibition, greed and dishonesty...and this book (the last one in a series of over 200 books by date) covers the very last articles he wrote in the month of October, 1921. In fact, he just finished writing his October 27th, 1921 column on the 25th and died of a heart attack at his desk. His last article was published two days after he passed away and the book concludes with the headlines of the day reference his passing and funeral.
