The Gunmen of the American Wild West Collection brings to life the history of the frontier west of the Mississippi in the latter parts of the 19th century. The gunmen ranged from lawmen to cowboys, ranchers, and outlaws. Most of the outlaws in the Old West preyed on banks, trains, and stagecoaches. Although spread thin, the law was present, usually on the level of deputy US marshal, county sheriff, and the town marshal or constable.

Charles Siringo was an author, detective, and lawman who spent 22 years fighting crime across America. He faced some of the most dangerous criminals of the late 19th century, including Butch Cassidy and the Wild Bunch gang.
