good read

If you're looking for historically correct story that is just plain a great read this is it.

Excellent Narration

The narrator reads at a pace and tone that is suitable for the story and he does very good voices for the different characters. A very entertaining listen that I'll definitely return to.

One of my favorites...

A solid and enjoyable old western novel with historical roots in the Missouri/Kansas border conflict of the American Civil War. A particularly ugly region of what was already a bloody and vile struggle.

The story was brought to life by Clint Eastwood in the movie "The Outlaw Josey Wales."

Well worth the read.

Wonderful

Better than the movie. Well narrated wonderful story. I will listen to the next story about Josie.

Love it

The book is as good, if not better than the movie. I wish it was a series

Excellent story

Great story to listen to, I enjoyed it from beginning to end. I’d recommend it to anyone especially fans of the Westerns.

Outlaw Or Hero

Those labeled an Outlaw and those labeled Heros are determined by the Authorities of the winners of the war.

Loved It

If you have seen the movie, the movie followed along pretty closely. The authors use of creative language was great.

Enjoyable

Loved the movie, the book was even better. wish their had been a sequel.

This book is why I read a Western.

I don’t exclusively read(or listen to) westerns, but when I do I want to read one, although it may be fiction, it is bolstered with factual information, strong and interesting characters, page turning-story-telling, and interesting and memorable phrases and philosophies. This western provided these qualities plus a good Narrator. I enjoyed the movie, but as usual I enjoyed the book more.
