@BryanBurrough Hi Bryan. I recently came across your piece Lifestyles of the Rich & Famous, very interesting. this was all part of a search for a Texas oil baron who is or was interested in purchasing racing memorabilia from leading art auction houses. Any help appreciated.

Rollicking good read dissecting Texas’s contribution to the American gunfighter ethos by venerable Austin author @BryanBurrough. Highly recommended. Catch Bryan @texasbookfest 3 pm Sun 11/9 at Texas Tent.

@BryanBurrough Love this book. I drove from Tyler through NW Rusk and Gregg Counties this morning. Listening to The Big Rich on Audible for the 2nd time. Thanks for sharing stories and the history of the Big Four in Texas!

@BryanBurrough curious sir what your view is with everything going on in how it almost seems like history is repeating itself 50 years later with the rise of groups like you wrote about in Days of Rage.

@BryanBurrough Wondering of you have an opinion of the claims that there is a radical left wing underground in the US (Antifa). SPLC suggests the radical and antigovernment groups these days are all right wing. Asking based on Days of Rage and your research. Thanks.

A very great pleasure to have @BryanBurrough back on the pod to discuss his new book, THE GUNFIGHTERS: HOW TEXAS MADE THE WEST WILD, including the psychopathy of some he calls "the big 5." John Wesley Hardin as stone cold killer, anyone? open.substack.com/pub/smokeempod…

Dear Mr. @BryanBurrough , was wondering if you'd like to know Dean Faiello passed away, perhaps to let the victim's family know or for a follow-up story?

For Sunday's edition of REAL TEXANS, I visit with @BryanBurrough about his great new book, “Gunfighters: How Texans Made The West Wild.” Our discussion covers his career in financial journalism and the importance of looking at history with clarity.

Whatever else you are reading, put @BryanBurrough's “The Gunfighters” at the top of your list to read next. Whether you are drawn to the Old West, to gunfighters, or just well-written non-fiction, “The Gunfighters” deserves your time… and will then grab hold of it. The sub-title, “How Texas Made the West Wild,” seems like a flimsy assertion at first glance… But then the dots those post-Civil War gunfighters (through the end of the 19th Century) had to the Lone Star State start connecting. Burrough’s writing style is engaging, filled with humorous asides that don’t get in the way of his exhaustively researched topic. “The Gunfighters: How Texas Made the West Wild” should be immediately on your summer reading list.
