Ted Meyers researches the history of North America's Wild West. He has uncovered many hitherto unknown facts pertaining to western heroes and villains, including the certainty that many were both - and often at the same time. He has also written on naval history and has published two books on North American Native legends. When he is not at his home in Victoria he is probably in some western ghost town, or following the cold trails of the men and women who made the Wild West so interesting.
