Jesse James Quotes
Just able barely to mount a horse and ride about a little in the spring of 1866, my life was threatened daily, and I was forced to go heavily armed. The whole country was then full of militia, robbing, plundering and killing.

About
Jesse Woodson James was born in Near Kearney, Missouri, USA. He was an American criminal, bank and train robber, guerrilla, gang leader, and murderer. Hailing from the "Little Dixie" area of western Missouri, James was the most famous member of the James-Younger Gang. He and his brother Frank James were Confederate guerrillas or bushwhackers during the Civil War. On April 3, 1882, James was killed by Robert Ford, a young member of his gang who hoped to collect a reward on James' head. Already a celebrity in life, James became a legendary figure of the Wild West after his death.
