Massacres, mayhem and mischief fill the pages of Outlaw
Tales of Arizona: True Stories of Arizona's Most Famous
Robbers, Rustlers, and Bandits (Globe Pequot Press, ISBN
0-7627-2814-0). Enjoy the stories of murderers, bank robbers,
railroad and stagecoach bandits, along with dandies who
perpetrated fraud across Arizona’s hills and valleys.  From the
southern Sonoran desert to the snowcapped mountains of the
majestic Grand Canyon; westward into Wickenburg and into
the infamous Yuma Territorial Prison, men and women defied
the law with every imaginable method of crime.  Many ended up
in Yuma’s formidable prison, but some eluded the law even as
the gallows rope beckoned, never to be seen again.  

Enjoy a look back at a time in Arizona history when the law and
the lawless were sometimes in cahoots and no one was safe
from the whim of a gun-slinging outlaw.  A refreshing new
perspective on some of Arizona’s infamous outlaws.
