Excerpt from Two Evil Isms: Pinkertonism and Anarchism
Two Evil Isms marks the high point in the long quarrel between Charles A. Siringo and Pinkerton's National Detective Agency. It is the rarest of Siringo's works, for most of the original issue disappeared or was destroyed after it was seized by the Pinkertons. This facsimile edition has been prepared from the copyright volume in the Library of Congress. Because this reissue is a facsimile reproduction, it contains all of the typographical errors and misspellings of the original text. The advantage of this facsimile, however, is that it retains all the flavor and quaintness of the original. The present edition differs from the original only in that it is bound in cloth; the front and back cover designs are the same as used on the first, paper covered edition.
Siringo's reputation rests primarily upon the fact that he wrote the first authentic cowboy autobiography, A Texas Cowboy, or. Fifteen Years on the Hurricane Deck of a Spanish Pony (1885). Far more interesting, however, is his second autobiography, A Cowboy Detective: A True Story of Twenty-Two Years with a World-Famous Detective Agency (1912). The publication of this book marks the beginning of Siringo's feud with the Pinkertons.
A Cowboy Detective continues the autobiographical narration of Siringo's life from the period which closed A Texas Cowboy.
