"For a dime, they gave you a legend. For the truth, you have to look deeper."

Welcome to the Dime Library, where award-winning author and historian Matthew Kerns strips away the pulp-fiction polish of the Old West to find the real men and women beneath the dust. From the stage-lit stardom of Texas Jack Omohundro to the gritty reality of the frontier scouts, we explore the authentic history that built the American West. If you want stories that are better than the movies and backed by the archives, pull up a chair.
