Captain Jack Crawford (1847-1917), known as “The Poet Scout”, was born in Ireland and emigrated to the United States at the age of 14. He was wounded twice in the American Civil War, where while convalescing, Crawford learned to read and write. After the war he moved to Centralia, Pennsylvania to work the coal mines and later became the local postmaster. In 1875 Crawford went to the Black Hills to prospect but ended up working as a correspondent for the Omaha Daily Bee. A year later Custer City miners organized a 125-man militia known as the “Black Hills Rangers” and Jack Crawford was appointed as Chief of Scouts for the Rangers. It likely was during this period that he became known as “Captain Jack”.During the Sioux War of 1876 Crawford served as a civilian scout and soon was carrying war dispatches for Eastern Newspapers. He joined General Crook’s command just prior to marching in Crook’s epic “Horsemeat March” where Crawford’s “yarns and rhymes” would help to relieve the monotony and peril of camp life. After the Battle of Slim Buttes, the first Army victory after the Battle of Little Bighorn, Jack Crawford rode a distance of 350 miles in six days with dispatches for the New York Herald, growing his fame throughout the East, and becoming a national celebrity.In 1879, Jack relocated his family from Pennsylvania to the New Mexico territory and began scouting for the army again, this time during skirmishes with Apache Indians. He continued working for the government in various capacities as he was building his reputation as the “Poet Scout”, taking on a larger-than-life persona of a mythical western hero. His charm and gift for poetry made him accessible to young and old as he’d step on stage in his trademark buckskin and sombrero over his shoulder-length hair.Captain Jack Crawford would go on to publish 7 books of poetry, 5 plays and over 100 short stories. University of New Mexico Press would publish Darlis A. Miller’s biography, “Captain Jack Crawford Buckskin Poet, Scout and Showman” in 1993. This Captain Jack Crawford archive contains 23 items acquired from the estate of collector Robert Palazzo who lived in southern California. Many of these items are manuscripts ranging from single-page poems to book length stories. Several are un-published and likely these are the only known copies. We have noted the unrecorded material below. Jack Crawford signed books are fairly common. His ephemera is not uncommon, but manuscript material of any length rarely make the market.
