Tales of outlaws and desperados are one of the few types of folklore that are peculiarly American. The myths and legends surrounding such characters as Belle Starr, Frank and Jesse James, and Wild Bill Hickok grip the national imagination just as tightly as they did a century ago. This well researched book highlightes tales both thrilling and humorous about hangings and burials, shootouts and practical jokes, the Hole in the Wall and Boothill Cemetery. The authors searched archival records, visited outlaws' homesites, and even interviewed descendants to bring this interesting look at the characters of the American West.
