Jesse James. Perhaps the most notorious American outlaw?

He’s become legendary figure of the Wild West, compared to an American ‘Robin Hood.’ But with a legacy so pervasive, the myths about Jesse James can get often get confused for the truth…

Did you know he played significant part in engineering his own reputation as a ‘Confederate hero’, comparing himself in newspapers to Napoleon and Alexander the Great? Or, that he married his first cousin while recovering from a gun wound?

Don finds out about the real Jesse James with his guest, award-winning biographer, T.J. Stiles on today’s episode.
