Western outlaws terrorized the country during the late 1800’s and early 1900’s. While they were fearsome, some became folk heroes and legends.
The killer of Jesse James was vilified as a coward rather than as a hero. Billy the Kid’s reputation outgrew his actual deeds. Legend says he killed 21 men in his 21-year life. The actual number is considerably smaller.
