Publisher's Note
Born in 1883, the year after Jesse James was killed by Bob Ford and buried in his mother's backyard, Homer Croy grew up near the James farm in northwest Missouri. He talked with many old-timers who knew Jesse and Frank James and their remarkable mother, Zerelda. Eyewitness accounts (sometimes humorous) and Croy's familiarity with the milieu that produced the outlaw brothers enrich Jesse James Was My Neighbor. Jesse read the Bible before he went out to rob a bank or train (Frank preferred Shakespeare), and he was honest except for those raids, according to Croy. The author follows the James boys, documenting their criminal activities and their human side while sorting out the growing legend. He adds a necrology of the twenty-eight bandits who rode with the James gang at one time or another.

Industry reviews
This offers "everything you always wanted to know about Jesse James but were afraid to ask." Croy was the James boys' neighbor and knew the family well. Additional interest in this 1949 title might be generated by recent claims that the outlaw did not die in 1882 from the wound inflicted by back-shooter Robert Ford, as legend has it, but actually survived well into the 1940s.
