Book excerpt: Evans and Sontag were among the most notorious outlaws of the American West. Here for the first time is the true story of Eva Evans, the teenage daughter of Chris Evans, whose life was just as dramatic as that of her train robbing father. From her first-hand accounts of the manhunt for her father; her romance with his bandit partner, John Sontag; her career on the stage, portraying herself in a popular blood and thunder melodrama; and her surprising admission, at the end of her life, of her father's guilt, O'Connell tells a story that not only entertains, but is a valuable contribution to California history.--From publisher description.
