Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tiburcio Vasquez is, next to Joaquin Murrieta, America's most infamous Hispanic bandit. After he was hanged as a murderer in 1875, the Chicago Tribune called him "the most noted desperado of modern times." Yet questions about him still linger. Why did he become a bandido? Why did so many Hispanics protect him and his band? Was he a common thief and heartless killer who got what he deserved, or was he a Mexican American Robin Hood who suffered at the hands of a racist government? In this engrossing biography, John Boessenecker provides definitive answers. Bandido pulls back the curtain on a life story shrouded in myth — a myth created by Vasquez himself and abetted by writers who saw a tale ripe for embellishment. Boessenecker traces his subject's life from his childhood in the seaside adobe village of Monterey, to his years as a young outlaw engaged in horse rustling and robbery. Two terms in San Quentin failed to tame Vasquez, and he instigated four bloody prison breaks that left twenty convicts dead. After his final release from prison, he led bandit raids throughout Central and Southern California. His dalliances with women were legion, and the last one led to his capture in the Hollywood Hills and his death on the gallows at the age of thirty-nine. From dusty court records, forgotten memoirs, and moldering newspaper archives, Boessenecker draws a story of violence, banditry, and retribution on the early California frontier that is as accurate as it is colorful. Enhanced by numerous photographs — many published here for the first time — Bandido also addresses important issues of racism and social justice that remain relevant to this day.

Book excerpt: The year is 1854, Monterey, California. Young Tiburcio Vasquez spends his days performing daring stunts on his horse at fiestas, operating a popular dance hall, and courting the daughter of a wealthy Spanish rancher. His carefree, idyllic daily life, however, is threatened by a vast migration of energetic Americans pouring into the state after the discovery of gold. When these two worlds collide, Tiburcio's plans for a pleasant, prosperous future are smashed. One night he is wrongly accused of murdering a white constable at his own fandango and is forced to flee his family home with the real killer - his cold-blooded, hot-tempered cousin Anastacio Garcia. Garcia wants to make the "invaders" pay for taking his countrymen's land and forever changing California's quiet, pastoral way of life. He exacts revenge by the most violent means. Irrevocably tied to Garcia, the well-educated and charismatic Tiburcio is now hunted wherever he goes. Unable to set the past right again, Tiburcio has no choice but to become the leader, protector and defender of countless wronged people, as well as the mastermind behind a grand, secret rebellion to overthrow the state's new government. Always on the run, and tossed in and out of prison, Tiburcio hardens. He finds solace in poems, dancing, guitar playing, and the company of women. Still, nothing can fill his soul the way Anita, the rancher's daughter, did. He audaciously holds up stage coaches, steals cattle and loots entire towns to fund his revolution and stir fear in the gringo population - from the governor down to the new settlers. Though landless, Tiburcio and his band of outlaws roam the California countryside and raise hell while tenacious Sheriff Harry N. Morse and other lawman try to bring an end to their reign of terror.
