Pseudonyms: Author of "Buffalo Bill"; Author of "Donald Dyke, the Yankee Detective"; Author of "Gentleman Joe"; Badger, Jos. E. (Joseph Edward), 1848-1909; Baker, Col.; Clinch, Capt.; Howard, Jack; Kearney, Jim; King, Ed; Lawson, W. B.; McKenzie, Donald J.; Norris, Stanley; One of the Boys; Raymond, P. T.; Rockwood, Harry, 1832-1873
The Library of Congress incorrectly lists dates as "1832-1873" on their authority record for this author, which has somehow become conflated with Emile Gaboriau. The dates used here come from Brandeis' finding aid for the author's papers.
