The Mason County “Hoo Doo” War, 1874-1902

Description Additional info Product reviews

Denton: University of North Texas Press, 2006. 1st edition. 332 pages. Hardcover with dustjacket; both are in FINE condition.

 

The story of a dark episode in American frontier history filled with betrayal, and mob justice in the open-range days of Mason County in the mid-1870s when law enforcement often meant vigilante justice. From this the “Hoo Doo” War, a bitter blood feud erupted and for the remainder of the century, violence and fear gripped the region. The definitive account of what is generally considered Texas’ most bitter feud carefully researched, often drawing on primary source material.
