True histories of western outlaws Jesse James and Butch Cassidy are paired in the classic Desperate Men. James D. Horan, the first researcher to be granted access to the long-sealed files of the Pinkerton National Detective Agency, was able to show in graphic and unsentimental detail the bloody desperation of the James-Younger gang and the Wild Bunch. Horan reveals the insecure, bitter Jesse James behind the bandit's mask. His death ended a sixteen-year reign of terror in the Middle Border, but farther to the west Butch Cassidy, the Sundance Kid, and their cohorts soon loomed on the outlaw trail. Their criminal careers and intimate lives are tracked in this revised, enlarged edition of Desperate Men.

Desperate men
Good descriptions of the west and the times from the civil war to the twenties.
Horan has an excellent storytelling style. He does a wonderful job of giving life to the factual accounts he pulled from. As this was originally written about fifty years ago it was interesting to read his accounts of recent history as it was back then. He respects the outlaws and the lawful equally in his accounting.
I absolutely recommend this book for anyone interested in history of not just the American outlaw but of the old American west.
