Young Swearengen: The Wild Bill Edition

Al Swearengen (1845-1904) was a notorious pimp, gambler, and degenerate - and those were his finer qualities. At the age of only 17, he was already determined to leave his bloody mark on the world. So when he and his pregnant wife Nettie arrive at the Lost Creek mining camp in the summer of 1862, Al sets his mind to raising a stake for his unborn child. His scheme: hustling prize fights between the locals and his ringer, a runaway slave named Hank. But the camp's brutal boss, Bloody Mary Graves, has no interest in Al or his schemes... unless she can trick him into disposing of the only witness to the murder of her husband. And then there's the problem of how to handle the volatile young Wild Bill Hickok...
