À propos de cet audio

Space may be the final frontier, but no frontier has ever captured the American imagination like the "Wild West", which still evokes images of dusty cowboys, outlaws, gunfights, gamblers, and barroom brawls over 100 years after the West was settled. A constant fixture in American pop culture, the 19th century American West continues to be vividly and colorful portrayed not just as a place but as a state of mind. In Charles River Editors' Legends of the West series, listeners can get caught up to speed on the lives of America's most famous frontier figures in the time it takes to finish a commute, while learning interesting facts long forgotten or never known.

The Wild West has made legends out of many men through the embellishment of their stories, such as crediting Billy the Kid and Wild Bill Hickok for killing far more people than they actually did. But it has also made icons out of outlaws like Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid based on the mystery and uncertainty surrounding their crimes and deaths, allowing speculation and legend to fill in the gaps.

Harry Longabaugh has long been known mostly for his interesting nickname, the Sundance Kid, and his association with Butch Cassidy. Though he is commonly associated with Cassidy, the duo were actually just two members of a full-fledged gang known as the Wild Bunch that conducted robberies in the Southwest and became legendary for their shootouts and their escapes from the law. The Wild Bunch has been credited for the longest successful stretch of bank robberies in American history.
