Jesse James | Bank Robber (Part 2)
from The Wild West Extravaganza Hosted by The Wild West Extravaganza
The outlaw Jesse James got his start during the Civil War as a young bushwhacker, fighting with William Quantrill and Bloody Bill Anderson. He killed his first man at the age of 16 and continued doing so even after the war was officially over. Today, we’ll discuss Jesse’s rise from a mere bushwhacker to an outlaw as he and his brother Frank begin robbing banks and have their first brush with the infamous Pinkerton Detective Agency. Also discussed are Cole Younger, Clell Miller, and Little Archie Clement.
