"What if these different despised groups—the Indians, the slaves, the poor whites—should combine?"

I'm currently listening to the audio book and enjoying it immensely. Trevor's mother is a gem. She reminds me of the women in my family & I can't help but smile as he recounts stories of his childhood with her as the main focus at times. If I ever find out Trevor's doing a book event in my area, I'm going.

Perfect book to take with me to Jury Duty. My opinion so far: Bonnie and Clyde were wannabes in comparison to Dillinger and the other gangsters of that era. Pretty sure Baby Face Nelson was either a sociopath or a psychopath.
