Hard to put down

I bought this book back in 1996 when i was 12 years old while I was on a road trip from new york to washington state. I read it back then and loved it. I recently found the book in my basement in a box, dusted it off and decided to read it again. Im glad I did. After finishing the book I gotta say Lee Nelson really knows how to keep you into the story. Reading this book was like playing a movie in my head. If you wanna know more about Butch Cassidy and the Wild Bunch I suggest you read this book.

One of my favorite books of all time!

Cassidy is a historical fiction account of Butch Cassidy's life. It is extremely well written and holds your interest through the whole book. I loved learning about the life of, in my opinion, the greatest outlaw of the west. The only book that comes close to matching this book is Rockwell, also by Lee Nelson. I couldn't more strongly recoment either of these books!
