NANTAN: THE LIFE AND TIME OF JOHN P. CLUM

VOLUME 2 TOMBSTONE TO LOS ANGELES 1882-1932

Most people know John P. Clum as an Apache Indian Agent, and later the founder of the Tombstone Epitaph and the mayor of Tombstone, A.T. during the Wyatt Earp / Doc Holliday era.  But Clum’s Tombstone days lasted less than three years.  When he left Tombstone in the fall of 1882, he still had 50 years of life to live!  Nantan: The Life and Times of John P. Clum  Volume 2 Tombstone to Los Angeles 1882-1932  chronicles, in great detail, 50 years of one of the most fascinating men of the old west!

Did you know that John P. Clum...

• ...was solely responsible for establishing US mail service across Alaska?

• ...along with the Keystone View Company was responsible for providing some of the first photos and narration about life in a frozen wilderness which, at the time, most Americans didn’t know existed?

• ...along with other Postal Inspectors busted an international lottery operation which essentially eliminated lotteries in the US for the next 60 years?

• ...was, at one time, a United States Deputy Marshal in Texas?

• ...was a big part of a phenomenal land speculation frenzy in southern California, resulting in the founding of many California cities that still exist today?

When you get to the end of Chapter 17, the Clum story doesn’t end there!  I’ve packed the Appendix with a wagon-full of additional information including the following sections:

• John Clum on the Big and Small Screen
• Walk the Proud Land
• Audie Murphy – Celluloid Nantan
• The Talents of Caro Kingsland Clum Vachon

…and much, much more.
