The June line-up:
HORACE GREELEY – After telling others to “go out West”, Horace finally does it himself. Even though he only spent four months there, his experiences greatly affected his life.

CAMAS PRAIRIE WAR I & II – When the Bannock Indians signed a peace treaty, one word was written incorrectly. It resulted in war.
WILLIAM QUANTRILL – Some people are controlled by events. Others control them. Quantrill took advantage of events.
CHIEF SEATTLE – Chief Seattle welcomed the early settlers. While he was still alive, he was honored by having the area’s chief city named after him.
JOHN BEHAN – We know about John Behan from the O.K. Corral shootout. But, as we shall see, there was a lot more to the man than one incident.
ROBERT FORD – Although Robert killed a famous outlaw, it not only didn’t make him a hero, it made him an outcast.
MORMON HANDCART COMPANY – It took resolute people to move west. But there were no more resolute people than those who pulled handcarts to get there.
SAMUEL MAVERICK – Even though Maverick never wanted to be a cattleman, his name became attached to a type of cow.
ALFRED PACKER I & II – Known as the “ghoul of the San Juans” because of his cannibalism, Alfred Packer’s story seemed to go on forever.
BILLY WILSON – Sometimes men are able to outlive their past, turn over a new leaf, and are given a new chance.
RANCHERS RETURN TO TEXAS I & II – Following the Civil War Texas ranchers returned to cattle as wild as any animal. But, they saw opportunities, and took advantage of them.
GEORGE FLATT – Things moved fast in the Old West. One day George is a hero. The next day he’s a dead bum. ”
JOE MEEK – Mountain men were known for their ability to tell tall tales. Joe Meek was also known for his integrity.
JIM CRANE – As today, if you mess with a gang member, in the Old West, the other gang members may just come after you.
LITTLE BIG HORN I & II – Over the years, George Armstrong Custer has been thought of as a great military hero and a fool. Could he have been both?
CRAWFORD GOLDSBY – There are those who say a name makes a man. When Crawford Goldsby changed his name, it sure made him different.
