Book First Edition
Trade Paperback. Condition: Near Fine. First Printing. 285 Pages. A beautiful As New book with flawless interior text pages. Etta Place, paramour of the Sundance Kid and confidant to the bandit Butch Cassidy, led an adventurous life on the run that stretched from Utah to the red-light district of San Antonio, Texas, and finally to the remote South American region of Patagonia. The strikingly beautiful Etta turned her back on the oppressive Victorian ideals that in those days kept women out of trouble. Etta was trouble, and while some theorize that she simply fell victim to the charms of the Sundance Kid, others argue that she personified the indomitable rebel spirit of the Wild West and could not be tamed. Etta Place: This book tells of the outlaw gang's activities in the United States, follows the infamous trio to South America, and recounts the mysterious San Vicente shootout which supposedly ended in the deaths of Cassidy and Sundance. The book also looks at the many spinoff tales that place Butch, Sundance, and Etta alive at various locations long after that famous gun battle. The author has interviewed those whose ancestors knew members of the outlaw gang and has collected rare photographs and documents of the investigative work from the Pinkerton Detective Agency hired to bring an end to the activities of the Wild Bunch.
