Hands up, or, Twenty years of detective life in the mountains and on the plains Reminiscences of General D.J. Cook, superintendent of the Rocky Mountain Detective Association. A condensed criminal history of the far West
A grisly and entertaining account of the experiences of General David J. Cook, Superintendent of the Rocky Mountain Detective Association. This sensationalist narrative (written or dictated by Cook but presented in the third person) takes the reader through the true history of crime in the Colorado area during the 1860's and 70's. The times were hard and the men desperate, and there was almost no law enforcement to speak of. The few brave souls who did try to battle crime saw such scenes of butchery as cannot be spoken of without a shudder.
