...West after the Civil War. All too often, the doves turned out to be harpies. Rosa reports an episode in which a prostitute knelt and screamed cock-a-doodle-doo as she splashed happily in the hot blood of a stranger who had just been ventilated. As for Calamity Jane, Wild Bill's putative paramour, she was once thrown out of a bordello "for being a low influence on the inmates." Money was a more reliable consolation.

Contributing Editors Judson Gooding, Marshall Burchard and Frederic Golden collaborated with Editors John Elson and Robert Shnayerson on the cover story and "sidebars." They were assisted by Researchers Jane Semmel, Erika Sanchez, Patricia Gordon and Patricia Beckert. For Gooding, the assignment had a sense of familiarity. As San Francisco bureau chief in 1967, he covered the Oakland antidraft demonstrations; last year he was in Paris reporting on "les jours...
