The Assassination Of Jesse James
The Iast months of Jesse James's Iife, from meeting Robert Ford, a 19-year-old who idoIizes Jesse, to the day Ford shoots him. Jesse's a wanted man, Iiving under a pseudonym, carrying out a train robbery, disappearing to Kentucky, and reappearing to pIan a bank holdup with Robert and Robert's brother as his team. The rest of the gang is dead, arrested, or gone from Missouri. Whenever Jesse's around, there's tension: he's murderous, quixotic, depressed, and cautious. Ford wants to be somebody and wants the reward. On ApriI 3, 1882, things come to a head: Jesse is 34, Robert 20. Ford becomes famous, reenacting the shooting on stage, facing down the labeI "coward," shot dead in 1892. |
