He was just a teenage, Missouri farm boy when his world was turned upside down by the viciousness of the Civil War. Soon enough he and his brother came under the tutelage of Bloody Bill Anderson who taught Jesse James how to be a stone cold killer. This is that incredible story.
Bob Boze Bell is known as America's Western Storyteller. He is an artist, author, writer and serves as executive editor of True West magazine. Bell is a popular, sought-after figure in television documentaries about the Old West, appearing as an expert in dozens of Wild West history shows. Bell won an Emmy Award as Executive Producer of the PBS special, Outrageous Arizona, a zany look at the state's centennial, that he also wrote and helped direct. As an author, Bell has brought to life Billy the Kid, Geronimo, Doc Holliday, Wyatt Earp and Wild Bill Hickok in his best-selling Illustrated Life and Times series. His books Classic Gunfights I, II and III are must-reads about the most important Old West gunfights. Bell’s Bad Men is now in its fourth printing, while his illustrated autobiography, The 66 Kid: Raised on the Mother Road, gives personal insight into the passions that have driven him on his lifelong quest to interpret the history of the American West for audiences around the world.

It would be a good thing to tell the border war between Kansas and Missouri. The attack on Lawrence was a retaliation for similar atrocities in Missouri. I don’t have a dog in that fight, but found the larger story interesting, in contrast to the lone story of the event in Lawrence

That's so cool. I never seen that early portrait of Jesse. He was one of my favorite outlaws of the wild west. I know the ballad by heart and i actually met and worked with someone who is a cousin distant cousin of Jesse.

Bob, Great to see ya in the neighborhood! Sorry I missed you. One of the train stations held up was the Selsa station In fact, it was ( they believe ) robbed so many times none of the regular folks would utilize it. Goodbye to that train station. Good to hear ya still quite active. Best wishes !!

Good story as always! My dad's side of the family reside along the Kentucky/Tennessee border. Banditry and brutality was commonplace during the civil war. I've heard a lot of stories but none are documented well. I'd be curious as to what is true. Maybe you can enlighten us in the future. Best wishes.

You definitely get the sense that pound for pound, the guerilla war of Missouri/Kansas was far more nasty and bloody than the battles in Virginia because it was so personal with neighbors literally massacring each other and they didn't believe in the rules of war.

I have always wondered if Frank and Jesse and the rest of the gang suffered from PTSD for the war. Though from what I read little was known about it back then and I guess as far to my knowledge there wasn't anything could be done for it. I know that doesn't excuse the crimes they committed or the things that they did just something that I was curious about?

Hi Bob, I'm confused...you say in June of 1860 Jesse was 12, his older brother was 16 and his sister was 12. Did Jesse have a twin? I thought he had a younger brother who died in the Pinkerton raid on their house.

What is notable is that most of these people, on both sides, used religion as a justification for their horrible behavior. Same God, same Bible used to justify their abhorrent actions. Jesse's real father was a Baptist preacher who disappeared in the California gold rush of 1849. Somehow nothing changes even today. Folks want to get just enough religion so that it doesn't interfere with their sinnin'. My great-great grandfather was given to tell people in his little town that there weren't nobody in the town but drunken Baptists, lying Methodist and wimmin' chasing Campbellites. He allowed he wanted to be a Catholic because they did it all. Needless to say, his social circle needs a small campfire to stay warm. As someone who played around Frank James grave in Hill Park I love these tales, Bob. P.S. Fact! Frank James was cremated and his ashes were posthumously put in his wife's grave. Good and accurate story, Bob.
