Henry Starr was one of the most notorious criminals of the Old West, famed far and wide for robbing two banks in the same town at the same time--a feat even the Dalton Gang couldn't pull off. Still, Henry Starr was a reluctant outlaw. An honest, hardworking seventeen-year-old Cherokee cowboy with a steady job and a steady girl, he was framed and arrested for a crime he didn't commit.

By the time he was through, he was said to have robbed more banks than any other man in history. From Henry Starr's initiation as an outlaw, to a death sentence handed down by "Hanging Judge" Parker, to his final days playing the bad guy in Hollywood...
