A scarce and sought-after first edition of Outlaws of the Border, published the same year as Jesse James’s death. This gripping 19th-century narrative chronicles the lives, crimes, and legends of Frank and Jesse James, the Younger Brothers (Cole, Bob, and Jim), and other associates of Quantrill's guerillas. Told in vivid, sensational detail, the volume explores their early lives, wartime exploits, infamous robberies, and eventual downfall. With over 80 chapters and richly illustrated with full-page woodcuts, the book offers a striking blend of historical reporting and popular crime literature of the American frontier. By Jay Donald. Published by Coburn & Cook Publishing Co., Chicago, 1882. First Edition – Fully Illustrated.
