Prodigal Sons by Wallace Smith

While Evans and Sontag hid out, writers Ambrose Bierce and Joaquin Miller championed their cause in the San Francisco Examiner. After killing a member of a posse outside his home on the outskirts of Visalia, he fled to the Sierra Nevada mountains with his younger partner, John Sontag. Evans was accused of robbing the Southern Pacific Railroad in California between 18. Christopher "Chris" Evans (1847 1917), a native of Bell's Corner near Ottawa, Canada, was an American farmer and teamster turned outlaw. Six black & white photographic illustrations. Crimson cloth over boards with gilt titles at the front panel and backstrip. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. Remains clean, sturdy, and quite presentable.
