Rube Burrow: The West's Most Dangerous Train Robber

Rube Burrow: The West's Most Dangerous Train Robber

Rube Burrow began as an honest cowboy and farmer with every intention of living a simple life. Born in Alabama in 1855, he built a family and worked the land until sickness, failed crops, and tragic loss pushed him past the breaking point. From his early train robberies in Texas to long months hiding in the Alabama backwoods, this is the complete story of Burrow’s rise and fall. His robberies, escapes, disguises, and shootouts, as well as the people who helped him, the lawmen who hunted him, and the choices that led to his violent demise. Was Rube Burrow a tragic figure crushed by hardship, the Robin Hood of Alabama, or simply a dangerous outlaw?
