Heroes or desperadoes? For more than a century Wild West enthusiasts have been divided in their estimations of the exploits of Frank and Jesse James. To some, the James brothers were latter-day Robin Hoods who shared the proceeds of their bank and train robberies with the disadvantaged of their home state of Missouri. To others, the Jameses and their gang were among the most notorious outlaws of the American nineteenth century, cutting a bloody swath of crime from Iowa to Texas and from Kansas to West Virginia between 1866 and Jesse's death in 1882. In Frank and Jesse James, historian Ted P. Yeatman separates the men from the myths. Delving into archives of the states where they carried out their most audacious hold-ups, he reconstructs the historical record of their infamy, from their days serving as Confederate bushwhackers in Missouri to Frank's travels with the notorious Quantrill's Raiders. After likely assisting, if not participating, in America's first daylight armed bank robbery in peacetime in Liberty, Missouri in February of 1866, the James Brothers' reputation was set. For the next decade-and-a-half, Frank and Jesse James and their confederates were among the most daring and most feared outlaw bands in the nation. Yeatman discloses information that has hitherto eluded most historical accounts of the James Gang. Among these are letters concerning a full-scale war the Pinkertons waged against the James Brothers in the 1870s, including a firebombing of the James homestead that so outraged citizens it turned the tide of sympathy in the James' favor and helped to stoke popular belief in their benevolence. Yeatman also reveals information pertaining to the exhumation and forensic study of Jesse's remains that sheds light on the outlaw's habits, life, and death. Illustrated with rare period photos and documents, Frank and Jesse James is a trove of treasures for any reader fascinated by the legends and lore that make the Wild West wild. - Jacket flap.

"Not only does this new book record a factual story of my great-grandfather Jesse James in print, but also helps the reader get to know Jesse's true personality and appearance. A great contribution toward separating facts from folklore and provides a guide for any future photo identification work." --James R. Ross, Superior Court Judge of the State of California, great-grandson of Jesse James A name well known to most Americans, Jesse James was a veteran of the Civil War, a bankrobber, and a very romanticized popular hero. Although James has been the subject of countless biographies and historical novels, as well as the theatre and cinema, new light can still be shed on his life. In The Many Faces of Jesse James, author, the late Phillip W. Steele, with George Warfel, presented a fascinating study of James' life using his many portraits as a frame of reference. Steele took each documented photograph of James and examined it closely, showing how the dress, demeanor, and physical well-being of James relate to what scholars believe him to have been doing at the time. Since the possibility of more actual portraits and photographs of James exists, Steele explained the process George Warfel has devised to accurately identify Jesse James, even including a group of "false photos" of James to illustrate his point. Fans of James-Younger gang lore will appreciate this fresh, yet practical approach to understanding this enigmatic historical figure. Readers for whom Jesse James is only a name will no doubt become more knowledgeable about the complex circumstances that led the outlaw to lead the life he did.

A deep investigation into historical documents that prove the notorious outlaw Jesse James faked his own death • Presents the legend of Jesse James and counters it with the real story, based on family records • Provides photographic evidence, a journal of Jesse James’s, and historical records that prove James faked his death, verified by experts and civic authorities • Debunks the 1995 DNA test results of James’s supposed remains The story of the notorious outlaw Jesse James’s assassination at the hands of Robert Ford has been clouded with mystery ever since its inception. Now, James’s great-great-grandchildren Daniel and Teresa Duke present the results of more than 20 years of exhaustive research into state and federal records, photographs, newspaper reports, diaries, and a 1995 DNA test in search of the truth behind Jesse James’s demise. Explaining how the accepted version of the history of Jesse James is wrong, the authors confirm their family’s oral tradition that James faked his own death in 1882 and lived out his remaining days in Texas. They methodically unravel the legend surrounding his death, with evidence vetted by qualified experts and civic authorities. They share the journal of their great-great-grandfather, kept from 1871 to 1876 and verified to be written in James’s handwriting. They reveal forensically confirmed photographs of James before and after his supposed killing, including one of James attending his own funeral. Examining James’s life both before and after his faked death, they provide an account of where he lived and who he associated with, including his interactions with secret societies. They compare the contradictory newspaper reports of James’s death with accounts by his family and associates, which support that the man buried as James was actually his cousin, and reveal how James tricked authorities into believing he had been killed. Further supporting their claim, the authors debunk the DNA test results of the exhumation of James’s body in 1995. The Dukes detail the ways in which the test was fraudulent, an assertion supported by the deputy counselor for Clay County at the time of the testing. Backed by a wealth of evidence, the descendants of Jesse James conclusively prove what really happened to America’s Robin Hood.
