Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The legend of Jesse James was born of the war between the states and depending on whether one's disposition was pro-union or pro-confederacy; Jesse may have been considered either a demon or an avenging angel. On April 3, 1882 in a little four room house in Saint Joseph, Missouri, we are told that "the dirty little coward" Robert Ford shot an unarmed Jesse in the back of the head while he was up on a chair straightening a picture on the wall. This pretty much ended the chapter for Jesse James until many decades later, in 1948, when The Lawton Constitution newspaper shocked the world with the headline "Jesse James is Alive". An old man named J. Frank Dalton had emerged, with some evidence, to prove he was the notorious outlaw. Despite widespread recognition at the time, very little primary evidence remains today of this man's claims. However, more than 40 years ago, Bud Hardcastle of Purcell, OK discovered the original notes of Dalton's caregiver, Ola Mae Everhard. Ola had passed away but her husband Aubrey transferred her information to Bud with a promise he would continue the research and someday prove that J. Frank Dalton was really Jesse James. What follows represents more than 40 years of study based on primary evidence related to the man who claimed to be Jesse James. Never before have so many startling details been revealed about the most intimate conversations he had with his closest living relative and friend. The Hoax That Let Jesse James Live is a must read for any student of American History or fans of the notorious outlaw.
Book Synopsis The Mysterious Life and Faked Death of Jesse James by : Daniel J. Duke
Download or read book The Mysterious Life and Faked Death of Jesse James written by Daniel J. Duke and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2020-06-09 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A deep investigation into historical documents that prove the notorious outlaw Jesse James faked his own death • Presents the legend of Jesse James and counters it with the real story, based on family records • Provides photographic evidence, a journal of Jesse James’s, and historical records that prove James faked his death, verified by experts and civic authorities • Debunks the 1995 DNA test results of James’s supposed remains The story of the notorious outlaw Jesse James’s assassination at the hands of Robert Ford has been clouded with mystery ever since its inception. Now, James’s great-great-grandchildren Daniel and Teresa Duke present the results of more than 20 years of exhaustive research into state and federal records, photographs, newspaper reports, diaries, and a 1995 DNA test in search of the truth behind Jesse James’s demise. Explaining how the accepted version of the history of Jesse James is wrong, the authors confirm their family’s oral tradition that James faked his own death in 1882 and lived out his remaining days in Texas. They methodically unravel the legend surrounding his death, with evidence vetted by qualified experts and civic authorities. They share the journal of their great-great-grandfather, kept from 1871 to 1876 and verified to be written in James’s handwriting. They reveal forensically confirmed photographs of James before and after his supposed killing, including one of James attending his own funeral. Examining James’s life both before and after his faked death, they provide an account of where he lived and who he associated with, including his interactions with secret societies. They compare the contradictory newspaper reports of James’s death with accounts by his family and associates, which support that the man buried as James was actually his cousin, and reveal how James tricked authorities into believing he had been killed. Further supporting their claim, the authors debunk the DNA test results of the exhumation of James’s body in 1995. The Dukes detail the ways in which the test was fraudulent, an assertion supported by the deputy counselor for Clay County at the time of the testing. Backed by a wealth of evidence, the descendants of Jesse James conclusively prove what really happened to America’s Robin Hood.

Book Synopsis The Many Faces of Jesse James by : Phillip W. Steele
Download or read book The Many Faces of Jesse James written by Phillip W. Steele and published by Pelican Publishing. This book was released on 1995-06-30 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Not only does this new book record a factual story of my great-grandfather Jesse James in print, but also helps the reader get to know Jesse's true personality and appearance. A great contribution toward separating facts from folklore and provides a guide for any future photo identification work." --James R. Ross, Superior Court Judge of the State of California, great-grandson of Jesse James A name well known to most Americans, Jesse James was a veteran of the Civil War, a bankrobber, and a very romanticized popular hero. Although James has been the subject of countless biographies and historical novels, as well as the theatre and cinema, new light can still be shed on his life. In The Many Faces of Jesse James, author, the late Phillip W. Steele, with George Warfel, presented a fascinating study of James' life using his many portraits as a frame of reference. Steele took each documented photograph of James and examined it closely, showing how the dress, demeanor, and physical well-being of James relate to what scholars believe him to have been doing at the time. Since the possibility of more actual portraits and photographs of James exists, Steele explained the process George Warfel has devised to accurately identify Jesse James, even including a group of "false photos" of James to illustrate his point. Fans of James-Younger gang lore will appreciate this fresh, yet practical approach to understanding this enigmatic historical figure. Readers for whom Jesse James is only a name will no doubt become more knowledgeable about the complex circumstances that led the outlaw to lead the life he did.

Download or read book Who Killed Jesse James New Clues to the Old Mystery written by Roy William Roush, Dr, PhD and published by . This book was released on 2011-08-01 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For over 100 years, there have always been serious doubts that Bob Ford had killed Jesse James, Though most of our old history books have claimed that he did, there have always been many people who refused to believe it and have said that it was a clever hoax so that Jesse could escape from the law--and that they could prove it. However, there are still those who believe that history has told it right. But since the doubts have never gone away, it has led to some extensive research into the matter that has come up with some surprising results, but also along with more questions, such as: did Jesse live on to be an old man as some have claimed; if Jesse wasn't killed, then who lies buried in his grave; and when the body was exhumed in 1995 for DNA testing, what did it show? And since Bob Ford claimed to have shot Jesse with a .45 caliber handgun, why was a .38 caliber bullet found in the skull? The book also contains some interesting stories of Jesse and his gang, including the big shoot-out during their failed robbery of the bank in Northfield, Minnesota; the many years of being pursued by the Pinkerton's; the gunfights they had; and when they threw a bomb into his mothers home one night that killed Jesse's younger brother and blew off part of his mothers left arm, but failed to capture Jesse and Frank. Additionally, it includes information on Bob Fords secret deal with the Governor; why he only received part of the reward money instead of all of it; how Jesse had tried to pull off a hoax about his dearth before; and who was the old man who appeared in 1948 and said that he was the real Jesse James and had not been killed? All that and much more is covered in this new book.

Book Synopsis American Journalism by : W. David Sloan
Download or read book American Journalism written by W. David Sloan and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-01-10 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: News consumers made cynical by sensationalist banners--"AMERICA STRIKES BACK," "THE TERROR OF ANTHRAX"--and lurid leads might be surprised to learn that in 1690, the newspaper Publick Occurrences gossiped about the sexual indiscretions of French royalty or seasoned the story of missing children by adding that "barbarous Indians were lurking about" before the disappearance. Surprising, too, might be the media's steady adherence to, if continual tugging at, its philosophical and ethical moorings. These 39 essays, written and edited by the nation's leading professors of journalism, cover the theory and practice of print, radio, and TV news reporting. Politics and partisanship, press and the government, gender and the press corps, presidential coverage, war reportage, technology and news gathering, sensationalism: each subject is treated individually. Appropriate for interested lay persons, students, professors and reporters. Instructors considering this book for use in a course may request an examination copy here.
