Butch Cassidy and The Wild Bunch
Few topics in American history generate as much interest as do outlaws and gunfighters of the old west. The names of many of these outlaws are legendary: Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Doc Holliday, Jesse James, Billy The Kid and Wyatt Earp to name a few.
These men and others like them epitomize the image of the Wild West. However, much of the popular legends surrounding them are not true or are greatly exaggerated. Robert Leroy Parker, A.K.A. Butch Cassidy, was one of those classic rogue, outlaw bandits of the Old West. He took advantage of nearly all the tools available to him, and was a master of using the media to build support among the common people. In this book the author describes the known facts about some of our famous outlaws, but mostly about the outlaw known as Butch Cassidy.

pulled off the longest sequence of successful bank and train robberies in the
history of the American West, then disbanded and scattered across North and
South America to meet their colorful ends.
Or did they? After all of the dust settles from the legends, rumors, and stories, we're left with the burden of deciding which stories to believe and which are better left for the telling – around a campfire, under cover of a starlit night, with just enough wildness left in the air to take us back..
