How Well Do You Know The History of The Wild West?

What is Jesse James remembered for?

Jesse James is best remembered for being a famous outlaw. During his reign, the Wild West had its share of famous outlaws but James was arguably the most popular outlaw of his era. He was barely ever alone during his marauding trips too as his brother, Frank James, accompanied him on many of his exploits.

The brothers began their careers as criminals during the civil war by serving as Bushwhackers before moving on to establish their own gang of outlaws. Before Jesse James was murdered by a member of his own gang, he and his brother Frank robbed trains, banks, and more.
