Last of the Bandit Riders...Revisited

Bandit Riders is well researched and well written. It is entertaining and the pictures are a real historical treat for western history buffs.

A friend gave me a copy of this book and if you are interested in the red rock country of Western Colorado, Eastern Utah, Wyoming, Idaho, Washington and Oregon, you will love this. And the revised version claims Butch Cassidy lived at least until 1941. Apparently this author knew Butch and was responsible for the nickname Butch, which is one of the many interesting recollections in this book. And, amazingly, he states quite plainly that crime does not pay, and he tells you why. It was a hoot. Buy it and enjoy it.

This book is really, really interesting. It was written by a man that had, to say the least, a very interesting life. Matt Warner's book is far from a "tell-all" but it is filled with the kind of detail that breathes life into the Old West as it really was. How do you REALLY get away from a posse? What is it like when the guns start firing? What were the hideouts like? We don't have many autobiographies of this kind and they should be read by all Old West enthusiasts for the real nuggets that they contain. Remember: this man really rode with Butch and Sundance and knew them well.

very insteresting Read it if you like the wild, wild, west, and Butch
