Come along on an action- packed journey back to the 1860s, where you'll experience pre-Civil War border raids, Quantrill's sacking of Lawrence, and the Battle of Westport before moving to early-day... This description may be from another edition of this product.
What a wonderful read! I am sorry to be finished reading. I will miss Red Ferrel, the horseman/ex-outlaw, and the Irishmen, Jack and Keven, and Adam Quint and Micheal Pacini. I just took a trip up to Quality Hill to look out over the West Bottoms, on this beautiful Kansas City day, and to finish my end-of-the-book cry. Schultz is a darned good writer.
A very good fictional history of early Kansas City, Missouri
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 27 years ago
"Gully Town" provides a very good insight into the history of Kansas City from the mid-1800's through the early 1900's through the lives of its main characters. A lot of these fictional characters are based on real people and Mr. Schultz's weaving of historic detail into the story is well done and makes for a learning expericence as well as fun reading. I would recommend "Gully Town" to anyone who has a desire to know more of the real history of early Kansas City, Missouri.
