Marilyn June Coffey will sign

Marilyn June Coffey will sign Thieves, Rascals, and Sore Losers: The Unsettling History of the Dirty Deals That Helped Settle Nebraska ($19.95).  On they came, from Belgium and New Hampshire, from Ireland, Germany and Scandinavia, from the Chicago fire, from the territories: Utah, Wyoming, Kansas, the Dakotas. All the way they brawled, about Indians, about border lines, about slavery, about who was the bigger imbecile. And then they fought County Seat Wars in most of the 3,000 new counties. A thousand of those remaining ended up in south central Nebraska, scrapping about Harlan County and which still-imagined town should hold the seat of government.  In Nebraska, a person could get away with as much as he dared.
