Download or read book Outlaws on Horseback written by Harry Sinclair Drago and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 1998-01-01 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Outlaws on Horseback concentrates on the long, unbroken chain of crime that began in the late 1850s with the Missouri-Kansas border warfare and ended in Arkansas in 1921 with the killing of Henry Starr, the last of the authentic desperadoes. Harry Sinclair Drago shows links among the men and women who terrorized the Midwest while he squelches the most outlandish tales about them. The guerrilla warfare led by the evil William Quantrill was training for Frank and Jesse James and Cole and Jim Younger. Drago puts their bloody careers in perspective and tracks down the truth about Belle Starr the Bandit Queen, Cherokee Bill, Rose of the Cimarron, and the gangs, including the Daltons and Doolins, that infested the Oklahoma hills. The action moves from the sacking of Lawrence to the raid on Northfield to the shootout at Coffeyville.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two men retrace the notorious pair's footsteps, covering thousands of miles of hazardous country on horseback and discovering how little has changed from the saddle in the last 100 years Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, the last of the legendary outlaws, were captured on daguerreotype, romanced in fiction, and immortalized on film by Paul Newman and Robert Redford. Simon Casson sets out on horseback to retrace the real-life footsteps of his boyhood heroes, covering 2,000 miles of the country's toughest and most treacherous terrain. Steeped in the lore of the Old West but lacking desert and mountain survival skills, Simon recruits ex-marine commando Richard Adamson. Together they grapple with hostile landscape, climatic extremes, vital supply shortages, and enormous personality clashes. Battling from one outlaw hideout to another and following trails sometimes only accessible by horseback, they are constantly taxed to the limit. In this dramatic account of their adventure, Simon and Richard also encapsulate the exciting and violent lives of the Wild Bunch 100 years ago, and providing an intimate and heartwarming picture of the rancher families who live and work this demanding land today.

Download or read book Wyoming Outlaws written by Mike Bell and published by . This book was released on 2020-02-19 with total page 738 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wyoming Outlaws, Butch Cassidy in Wyoming, 1889-1896, is the result of fifty years of research by author Mike Bell.It brings together his three previous volumes on Cassidy in Wyoming, published by the English Westerners' Society. This history began as the search for Billy Nutcher, who sold Cassidy stolen horses, and for Jack Bliss, the man who led the horse thieves. It became a history of the horse thieves and the long-forgotten horse thief war that has been overlooked by historians because of the the Johnson County War of 1892, which dominated the press at the time and has held the attention of historians and the public ever since. The horse thief war was far more wide-ranging and lethal than the Johnson County War, covering parts of three states and killing nine men. This book tells the story of Cassidy's forgotten years in Wyoming, and of the war to end horse theft, a war that nearly killed Cassidy. It also follows the careers of many of the men who rode with Cassidy at that time.

Download or read book Following the Frontier written by Roger Pocock and published by Long Riders Guild Press. This book was released on 2001-08-01 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roger Pocock was an Englishman whose tales of wanderlust and equestrian adventure were nineteenth century travel classics. Following the Frontier is considered his best work describing as it does his early adventures in North America. Although the autobiographical account reads like fiction, it is in fact only the first half of his remarkable life. Pocock begins his tale by explaining how he came to join the Canadian Mounties in 1885. When the Saskatchewan Rebellion broke out soon afterwards, Pocock s unit was ordered to march from Regina to Fort Albert during the height of the Canadian winter. The author s feet were severely frost-bitten, leaving him crippled for life. Never one to be put off by physical adversity, Pocock went on to become one of the nineteenth century's most influential equestrian travelers. One of the highlights of Following the Frontier is the detailed account of Pocock s horse ride along the infamous Outlaw Trail, a 3,000 mile solo journey that took the adventurer from Canada to Mexico City. During this trip Pocock not only visited Robber s Roost and Hole in the Wall, he also spent many a night with the hunted American outlaws then inhabiting this lawless section of the Old American West.Although considered one of the finest writers of the nineteenth century, Pocock s story is more than just a literary adventure. It takes the reader into backwoods, along forbidden paths, and into the den of danger!

Download or read book The Luckiest Outlaw written by Harold Hutton and published by Bison Books. This book was released on 1992 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: James Riley, alias Doc Middleton (ca. 1851–1913), was a notorious horse thief and murderer, a respectable businessman, a winner with the women, and an open-handed benefactor of the unfortunate. As a wanted man, Middleton concealed his past at every turn, burned incriminating letters, threw out red-herring tales, and lived under a dozen names. Because he was so hard to pin down and round up, a Cheyenne newspaper called him "the luckiest outlaw who ever infested the western frontier." Harold Hutton, a rancher on the Niobrara River, deep in "Doc Middleton country," has written the definitive biography of this Great Plains Robin Hood.
