Reviews
<p class="MsoNormal"><em>What I love most about this book is the reader is treated to
an accurate, birds eye view of the notorious James-Younger Gang
as seen through the eyes of two youngsters, Luke and Jenny. These two have the
ability to communicate with the spirit world and do some time traveling. Couldn't we all
be so blessed.<span> </span>What a great way
for people, especially youngsters, to learn history.</em></p>
