Description
These are stories of outlawry and the outlaw impulse. Settings vary from New England to Virginia to California. We inhabit a world ruled by outlaws, but they are not known as such; rather they are politicians and businessmen who have accumulated such fabulous wealth that they become laws unto themselves. My outlaws, at least, can plead in some cases a need to avenge a slain father or brothers, and in others poverty and desperation. The other famous outlaw included here, besides Wyatt Earp, is Billy the Kid.
