Product Description:
No one makes a more unlikely outlaw than young George LeRoy Parker, grandson of a Mormon bishop. But at 16, Parker throws in with Mike Cassidy, a shrewd old bandit who has seen something in the boy that nobody else has--the courage of a cougar and the heart of a renegade. Now old Mike has taught the kid everything he knows, and when he's done, there'll be no outlaw more feared, hunted, or idolized than George LeRoy Parker, alias Butch Cassidy.

George Cassidy was the alias Butch was using when he was arrested for horse theft. His actual name was Robert LeRoy Parker.

The review written in April 1999 from Cleveland Utah, was confusing. Was the writer saying the Author was incorrect in stating that Butch did not use the name George? If that be the case then I would refer the reviewer to an indictment issued on July 4th 1894 in Laramie that lists one George Cassidy as a defendant in horse theft. Prison records also indicate that George "Butch" Cassidy was incarcerated at the Wyoming State Prison on 7-15-94. Did I mis-read the review, or did the reviewer mis-read history?

How can one trust a book that can't even get the name of Butch Cassidy correct. Robert Leroy Parker is the real thing using George only perpetuates the untruths and casts doubt on the rest of the work.
