Doc Scurlock | The Thinking Man's Outlaw

Doc Scurlock | The Thinking Man's Outlaw

Josiah "Doc" Scurlock was a poet, philosopher, intellectual, and a hardened killer long before he ever met Billy the Kid. A mysterious past in Mexico, rumors of dead men from New Orleans to Texas, a penchant for vigilantism, and several close calls with the hostile Natives all made Doc a man to be both feared and respected. However, it was the trials he would face after the Lincoln County War that made Scurlock the man his family would remember. Also discussed: J.J. Dolan, John Riley, Billy Campbell, John Kinney & Jesse Evans.
