Wyoming Outlaws, Butch Cassidy in Wyoming, 1889-1896, is the result of fifty years of research by author Mike Bell.It brings together his three previous volumes on Cassidy in Wyoming, published by the English Westerners' Society. This history began as the search for Billy Nutcher, who sold Cassidy stolen horses, and for Jack Bliss, the man who led the horse thieves. It became a history of the horse thieves and the long-forgotten horse thief war that has been overlooked by historians because of the the Johnson County War of 1892, which dominated the press at the time and has held the attention of historians and the public ever since. The horse thief war was far more wide-ranging and lethal than the Johnson County War, covering parts of three states and killing nine men. This book tells the story of Cassidy's forgotten years in Wyoming, and of the war to end horse theft, a war that nearly killed Cassidy. It also follows the careers of many of the men who rode with Cassidy at that time.

Outlaw Tales of the Old West: Fifty True Stories of Desperados, Crooks, Criminals, and Bandits

This collection of fifty outlaw tales includes well-knowns such as Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Frank and Jesse James, Belle Starr (and her dad), and Pancho Villa, along with a fair smattering of women, organized crime bosses, smugglers, and of course the usual suspects: highwaymen, bank and train robbers, cattle rustlers, snake-oil salesmen, and horse thieves. Men like Henry Brown and Burt Alvord worked on both sides of the law either at different times of their lives or simultaneously. Clever shyster Soapy Smith and murderer Martin Couk survived by their wits, while the outlaw careers of the dimwitted DeAutremont brothers and bigmouthed Diamondfield Jack were severely limited by their intellect, or lack thereof. Nearly everyone in these pages was motivated by greed, revenge, or a lethal mixture of the two. The most bloodthirsty of the bunch, such as the heartless (and, some might argue, soulless) Annie Cook and trigger-happy Augustine Chacón, surely had evil written into their very DNA.
