The Wild West is an era made famous by its many outlaws. Names like Billy the Kid, Wyatt Earp, and Calamity Jane are still remembered for their tales of robbery, gunfighting and murder. One name that is often forgotten is Sam Bass. This Indiana orphan would go on to lead the “Bass Gang”, a posse of bandits that sought to perfect the art of train robbery. Bass treated thieving as a sport, this unbreakable addiction would later prompt the “Bass War” and “Round Rock Shootout” where Texas Rangers and the Bass Gang face one another head to head.
