Powell "Pike" Landusky was born in 1849 in what is now St. Francois County, Missouri, and for a time he lived and worked on the Hildebrand farm with Henry Hildebrand, brother of the famous Civil War guerrilla Samuel Hildebrand. Pike and his brother Henry were traveling to Montana as early as 1864, where they joined the gold rush at Last Chance Gulch in Helena. The town of Landusky, in north central Montana, is named after Pike. Pike died in 1894 in "Jew" Jake's Saloon at the hands of Harvey "Kid" Curry, with the help of his Gang. This book is about Pike's life and an in-depth study of the events that led up to and followed his killing and all the people involved in that conspiracy.
