Reviews"One of the most arresting and powerful biographies I have ever read. Few books profoundly change our understanding of a famous figure in American history; this is one of them." --Richard Maxwell Brown, editor, Violence in America "This book brings a fresh perspective to the volatile figure of Jesse James, removing him from the traditional western bandit framework and placing him squarely within the milieu of post-Civil War Southern Reconstruction. It will force a major reconsideration of this previously elusive folk hero." --William E. Parrish, author, A History of Missouri: 1860-1875 "Among all the myth and folklore as well as the serious studies of Jesse James, this book stands out as the best account of the meaning of his life and times. James was neither a Robin Hood figure nor a 'social bandit' nor a 'primitive rebel' nor an emblem of rural America's last stand against capitalist transformation. Rather, James and his associates were Confederate guerrillas who, in a Missouri torn by the Civil War, kept up their battle against the victors for a decade after. For the first time, thanks to T. J. Stiles, we see the real Jesse James." --James M. McPherson, author, Battle Cry of Freedom "At last, a meaningful Jesse James, shorn of hero-worship and stale theories of social banditry. His violence is now placed correctly in the realm of politics, and we can now see the Jesse James who embodied the brutal legacy of the Civil War in its most contested space -- the Border West." -- Christopher Phillips, author, Missouri's Confederate
