Their Deeds and Misdeeds

About this book

In the Twin Territories, as Oklahoma wasknown before statehood, renegades roamed, and attempted to rule, the land.Famous lawmen, including Bill Tilghman, Heck Thomas, and Chris Madsen, andinfamous outlaws, including the Dalton and Bill Cook gangs, have been thetopics of many books, documentaries, and magazine articles. Other, lesser-knowncharacters from Oklahoma's past have received little, if any attention...until now.Now, the story of Bert Casey and his gang can be told. Casey was thefiercely violent leader of a band of outlaws that terrorized the people ofOklahoma. While not as well known or as organized as the larger groups ofvillains, the Casey gang and its exploits captured the attention of thecitizens of Oklahoma, and of the law, for many years. Others mentioned includedoctor-turned-deputy Zeno Beemblossom and the flamboyant, volatile defenseattorney Moman Pruiett. Train robberies, murders, showdowns, and hangings werepart of everyday life in the Twin Territories, and they are all featured inOklahoma Renegades: Their Deeds and Misdeeds.What began as research for a short article for author Ken Butler quicklyturned into five years of work, resulting in his first book. Ken Butler is alifetime member of the National Association for Outlaw and Lawman History and acharter member of the Association for the Preservation of Lawman and OutlawHistory of Oklahoma (Oklahombres).
