The Outlaw Trail - Softcover

The Outlaw Trail tells the story of Sam Bass, the dashing young outlaw who becomes a hero to Texas cowboys and farmers. Like Jesse James, Bass is admired by many for preying on the railroads and eluding Pinkerton detectives, federal marshals, and a special task force of man hunters led by Captain June Peak. "Boys", Sam tells his friends, "it's time to get into the robbing business". So begins the violent life of Sam Bass and a fast paced book that will be impossible to put down.
