a true Western showdown. That's where
two men would meet in the center

39
00:03:10.199 --> 00:03:13.960
of town. Then they'd draw on
each other. You've seen it in movies

40
00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:16.360
a lot of times. The first
one for real actually took place today in

were on the train wasn't there, so

49
00:03:49.080 --> 00:03:52.879
they stole another thousand dollars in cashing
goods from the passengers. Now it was

50
00:03:52.919 --> 00:03:55.120
the first time in world history that
a moving train had been stopped in order

51
00:03:55.159 --> 00:03:58.599

thirty seven books and his main character
is Detective Harry Bosch. That might sound

128
00:09:46.120 --> 00:09:50.919
familiar, So all his books are
either Harry Bosch books or they are a

129
00:09:50.039 --> 00:09:54.200
character who was in a Harry Bosh
book. For instance, if you read

130
00:09:54.200 --> 00:09:56.159
the book, but you probably saw
the movie The Lincoln Lawyer that was played

131

brash as how brother. So they all

149
00:11:07.679 --> 00:11:11.600
a very sober feeling to be up
