The James-Younger Gang’s failed bank robbery in Northfield, Minnesota not only signaled the end of the infamous marauders – 3 of the outlaws were killed, the Youngers were captured, and the James boys were on the run – the botched raid is often considered “the last major event of the American Civil War”.
Johnny D. Boggs’ novel rendering of this iconic episode, which is told from several first person perspectives, is a truly fascinating look at history and the hell-raisers who defined it.

Boggs epitomizes the Western writer and his recent book, Killstraight, was hailed as an 'an instant page-turner' by the late Tony Hillerman.
