Deadwood Dick’s Doom; or, Calamity Jane’s Last Adventure 
By Edward L. Wheeler (1854-1885) 


This western, published around 1899, is a dime novel that has it all: roguish gun men, hostile Indians, 
chilvarous gentlemen to protect the hapless females, and - in Calamity Jane — even a female who can 
hold her own. The fictional character of the hero, Deadwood Dick, appeared in more than a hundred 
stories and became so famous the name was claimed by several men who actually lived in Deadwood, 
South Dakota. (Summary by Gesine/ Wikipedia) Total running time: 02:55:15.
