4.0 out of 5 stars Good Reading
I really enjoyed this book. I wanted to know more about Jesse James and what was going on in Missouri during the time of the civil war and Jesse's robberies and this book gave me a good basic understanding.
It was very easy reading and helpful.

2.0 out of 5 stars Easy Read ... for a Reason
When I picked up this book, I quickly discovered that I'd overlooked something: It is designed for adults who are learning to read.

Given its goal of being a easy-to-read book, Dyer decent a good job of describing the divisions between Unionists and Confederate sympathizers in Missouri and the rather limited role the James Brothers played in the Civil War. All in all, the book mostly whets one's appetite for more information, but there are some good photos and basic information that might recommend the book, particularly to younger readers who are interested in the Wild West or the Civil War.
