A Real Page Turner

I bought this for my twelve-year-old nephew, who is fascinated with all things Western, and ended up reading it myself. Thought I knew who Jesse James was, mostly from movies, but the author opened my eyes to the real outlaw. This is a gripping, real life story, expertly told. Kids and adults will appreciate the dozens of photos and illustrations. Made me feel like I was there, and I was surpised at how 'modern' the world was, with tabloid celebrities and phonies 'spinning' their stories for our attention.
