Cloth. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. First Edition. Hardback. First Edition. Billy The Kid, Jesse James and Al Capone were all criminals who robbed and killed, yet they were considered good outlaws, who were celebrated in sensational newspapers, newsreels and dime novels of the day, and later in fil…m and television, for their daring, courage, loyalty and even chivalry. All were driven to lives of crime as victims of political intrique or legal injustice. They committed capital crimes punishable by death, but, paradoxically, were loved, encouraged and supported by their communities. Here, for the first tine, a single volume gathers ten outlaw tales, ranging in date from the Norman Conquest to the sixteenth century, providing fresh translations into modern English by established scholars. Introductions precede each selection and notes identify all the significant names, places and historical events mentioned in the texts. Accessible and highly entertaining, these tales will be of interest to the general read and student alike. 346 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
