Like any other state in the Wild West, Oregon has seen its share of prospectors, cattle ranchers, and saloons-along with the predictable accompaniment of robbers, rustlers, and con men. The state's last train robbery, poorly planned and executed by the inept DeAutremont brothers, left the perpetrators empty-handed and eventually earned all three life sentences. Notorious road agent Black Bart followed the gold dust trail from California up through Oregon, mining stagecoaches along the way. And violent criminal Carl Panzram escaped from an Oregon prison twice, only to become one of the nation's worst serial killers.
All this and more is yours for the reading in Outlaw Tales of Oregon, which introduces twelve of the most dramatic events, and the most daring and despicable desperados, in the history of the Beaver State.
