Outlaw Tales of Montana

The mythic life of the western badman-rich with adventure, freedom, and cash-has always held a powerful attraction for Americans. In his lively and thoroughly researched Outlaw Tales of Montana, Gary Wilson furthers our love affair with outlaw lore while finding the reality behind the myth. Outlaw Tales tells the stories of some of the most fascinating-and least known-badmen to roam Montana’s ranges: “Long” Henry Thompson, the “terror of eastern Montana”; Con Murphy, the “Jesse James” of Montana; “Dutch” Henry Ieuch (and the outlaws of Big Muddy Creek); and George “Big Nose” Parrott. Also included are new insights into the life of Harvey “Kid Curry” Logan. P UBLISHER: SkyHouse Books
