I, Jack Swilling: Founder of Phoenix, Arizona (Prologue Books)

I, Jack Swilling: Founder of Phoenix, Arizona (Prologue Books)

Yesterday I was delirious, and the day before that, or several before that. Tonight, though, I seem to be aware of everything Iâ€™ve ever known . . . . Itâ€™s dark, double dark because of the mist that August steams from the Colorado. Yet I can see almost very place Iâ€™ve ever been . . .

All the men I liked are having drinks with me or yarning around campfires scattered from the Appalachians to the Pacific Coast. All the enemies Iâ€™ve fought are visible beyond the muxxles of guns or the points of knives . . . All of the women Iâ€™ve wigwamed with, including the two who demanded the lawâ€™s blessing, are either smiling or showing they wished they never met me . . . But I could never really belong to civilization, for once I hand helped to create it, I yearned for a place on which it hadnâ€™t laid an ordering hand.
