On April 3, 1882, a bullet fired by Bob Ford from a Smith & Wesson .44 revolver ended the life of Jesse James, notorious badman. Since then, the James story has grown into a full-blown American legend.
Here is the dramatic, day-by-day account of the gunman's lawless adventures--which to some held the bravura of a Robin Hood and to others were wanton banditry--right up to the blood-curdling moment when Jesse is shot down dead in his own parlor.
Now, for the first time, new material--drawn from authentic letters, old newspapers, and the personal remembrances of the James family, neighbors, and friends--casts a fascinating light on the motives and deeds of the entire James gang.
