Pink Higgins was a rugged Texan who lived a life of classic Western adventure.
In this, the first book-length biography of Pink Higgins, the author reveals never before published details about the Violence that followed the Higgins family to West Texas..
His son, Cullen Higgins, as a lawyer and judge, would become entangled in a series of Bloody events involving a powerful cattle baron and the legendary Texas Ranger Frank Hamer.
Yet he was a hard-working family man, devoted to his nine children.
Pink battled Comanches and rustlers, and led a faction in the murderous Horrell-Higgins feud of Lampasas County (Texas).
He was a cowboy, Indian fighter, trail driver, stock detective, rancher, and deadly shootist who killed more adversaries than did such noted gunfighters as Wyatt Earp, Doc Holliday, and Bat Masterson.
