The book starts with a nice map of the state of Kansas, 1870. And then in Part I, we get a nice history lesson of the settling of Kansas, including "Bleeding Kansas" and how it became intwined with the slavery issue at that time in United States history. And then come the Benders...
They murder travelers and rob them, killing a total of approximately eight people and stealing almost $6,000 plus jewelry, saddles, clothes, and more. A bloody family indeed! And then, poof! They're gone!
It's a nice, concise retelling of the saga of the Bloody Benders. And quite disturbing! Good artwork too! ( )
