#602 The Legend of Jack Longstreet: Bad Hombre? Noble Frontiersman? Or Maybe...a Little Bit of Both?

Welcome to Wonderhussy Adventure #602
Date of adventure: 1/20/22

Who was Jack Longstreet? According to the plaque in front of the Longstreet Casino, he was a noble iconoclast of the Old West -- defender of Indian rights and peacekeeper of the frontier.

But according to some old newspapers I read, he was also a low-down, dirty rotten cattle- and horse-thieving scoundrel who'd just as soon shoot you as say hello.

Which is closer to the truth? Join me as I visit the site of Longtsreet's cabin in Ash Meadows to explore the complicated personal history of this fascinating, but little-known renegade.
