Arthur Morgan's life ain't been what you'd call normal. Hell, half the time, it barely made sense. Sure, he was a gunslinger, a horseman, an outlaw-whatever fancy words folks like to use. But mostly, he was a man with more bad ideas than good ones and just enough stubbornness to see 'em through.
This here autobiography? Well, it's less a story of triumph and more a collection of unfortunate decisions, told straight from the source. You'll read about Arthur's deeply held belief that his homemade "miracle elixir" could cure damn near anything-except, apparently, the violent stomach aches it caused. Or the time he swore up and down he could talk to animals, which mostly just resulted in him getting bit, kicked, or ignored.
Ever wonder what happens when you challenge a bounty hunter to a cartwheel contest instead of a shootout? Arthur did. It did not go well. And then there's his short-lived experiment in starin' directly into the sun to "absorb its power," which, unsurprisingly, made him real good at bumpin' into things for a while.
But underneath all the dumbassery, there's a man who meant well-loyal to the gang, good to his friends, and always willin' to go the extra mile (sometimes in the wrong direction) if he thought it'd help. Untold ain't just a book about an outlaw; it's about a fella who lived life the only way he knew how-full speed, half-thinkin', and usually covered in dust.
So saddle up, shake your head, and enjoy the ride. It's a hell of a lot safer readin' about it than livin' it.

When Arthur met Rosemary at the young age of 25, he was pretty much a goner. It seemed Arthur had a thing for kindly little women. Maybe because deep down all he really wanted was an honest life on a ranch, with a lady he could worship and provide for like a real man should.
And in his short time with Rosemary he allowed himself to play make believe that that could ever happen.
But like most good things in Arthur's life - that came to a crashing end when Dutch uplifted the gang from that town to move on again.
But people from the past always have a way of showing up when you least expect it.
