Excerpt from Life of Tom Horn, Government Scout and Interpreter: A VindicationThis autobiography is now given in book form for gen eral circulation, in response to an insistent public de mand. The fact that such a Life had been written had no sooner become known than I was besieged by his per sonal friends and acquaintances, and by interested read ers of the published reports of the trial, for the publica tion of the autobiography prepared by Tom Horn. Let ters reached me by every mail from almost every state and territory of the Union; and I may be permitted here to state that there was scarcely a letter among them all which did not declare a belief in the innocence of Horn, after carefully considering the details of the case.Telegrams and letters reached me, also, from daily newspapers, monthly magazines and publishing houses, making propositions for exclusive publishing rights.And so I have yielded. In your hands is the book. For it, is asked a reading without prejudice. For its writer, is asked that which, during his closing years, was denied him - fair play.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
