First Lightning Tree Printing. "In this new edition of 'Murder and Mystery in New Mexico' nine riveting tales are presented with seldom told facts that go far toward explaining the why of the incidents involved. Why did women go out of their way to defend Billy the Kid? Who killed the editor of the Soccoro 'Sun' just outside the church? How did the laws of land ownership and usage of three countries cause the shootout in the Estancia Plains? Why did the hanging of Black Jack Ketchum put an end to the train robbery in New Mexico?"
