by Tom Deedy
A Western
Based on a Legendary but True Story and Traditional Folk Song
————————————
Tale involves the first and most successful robbery of the Union Pacific Railroad in 1877, a real event. The amount of federal gold in the robbery was the most ever taken from the railroad. The Texas Rangers declared the Sam Bass Wars in 1878, after the gang robbed four other trains and headed south. Sam's deep love for fellow runaway, Evangeline St. Etienne, reveals the outlaw's romantic soul.
