A definitive history of the Loomis Gang who terrorized central New York in the 1800's. Well-educated and from aristocratic New England families, George and Rhoda Loomis raised their children to be outlaws. Robbery, horse thieving, bribery, arson, counterfeiting, kidnapping, rape and murder-the Loomis Gang did it all until they were brought down by Constable Jim Filkins and United States Senator Roscoe Conkling.
Absolutely fascinating, such history, and well written!!

Of all the books about the Loomis Gang I have read this far exceeds them all!! Much more detailed and provided such incredible historical details I never knew. A must read....and it SHOULD be a movie!!
