Once Clyde had blood on his hands there was no going back, yet his miraculous escapes from police road-blocks and at least nine pitched gun-battles earned him a reputation of invincibility. Only through the betrayal of a former gang member were he and his lover gunned down in a carefully staged ambush to bring to an end their two-year crime spree.
Separating fact from fiction, this is the first publication which revisits the scenes of all their known and proven crimes across 500,000 miles of the American Midwest and Southwest. Presented in After the Battle's usual "then and now" format, 70 years on we picture the locations of the robberies and shoot-outs and seek out graves of those who died, lest their victims be overshadowed and forgotton by the legendary exploits of Bonnie and Clyde. 850 illustrations
