Hi Mr. McColl:

The book is posted at the publisher's website at www.PublishAmerica.com. While the Judge's biography was delved into, as he is such a large part of the trials and sentencing of the murderers, the book focuses on the outlaws. I felt that genealogical researchers interested in Judge Belden, who wanted a factual glimpse at how he ruled from the bench, would be interested in what I wrote. I was particularly impressed with him and the sentencing phase of the trial. One of the defense lawyers tried to make a mockery of the proceedings, but he put an abrubt stop to that. He was quite a guy and I hope you enjoy the book!

Joe
