Bass Reeves - Lawman by The Wild West Extravaganza
Make no mistake about it, the exploits of escaped slave-turned-lawman Bass Reeves are legendary.

With over 3,000 arrests and over a dozen kills to his name, Reeves was not only one of the most effective lawmen of the Old West but also one of the most deadly. But who was Bass Reeves really?
