Just about everyone has heard of the famous criminal duo, Bonnie and Clyde. Or seen a movie about them. Or both. But what do you know about them, other than they were criminals who were gunned down in their car? This infamous pair are the subject of this book. He writes about their inauspicious upbringing in rural Texas and how they came to know each other. But he spends the greater amount of the book writing about their exploits as they traveled around the countryside robbing gas stations, grocery stores, and the occasional bank. I didn't really know anything about them other than they died in a shootout in their stolen car so that was why I read this book. This is a pretty good book; I liked it and thought it was pretty well written. It did get rather repetitive and monotonous after a while, so I am giving it four stars, but overall it is a good true-crime book about Bonnie & Clyde.
