Robber and Hero: The Daring Raid on Northfield's First National Bank: A Tale of Heroism and Resistance - Softcover
Inhaltsangabe
"Robber and Hero" by George Huntington recounts the infamous 1876 raid on the First National Bank of Northfield, Minnesota, by the notorious James-Younger gang. The narrative begins with the gang's reconnaissance in southern Minnesota, where they posed as various professionals to avoid suspicion. Their initial target was Mankato, but they abandoned this plan due to perceived vigilance from the townspeople. Turning their attention to Northfield, the gang meticulously planned their attack, underestimating the resolve of the local citizens. On September 7, 1876, the gang executed their raid, which quickly escalated into a violent confrontation. Despite being heavily armed and experienced, the robbers were met with unexpected resistance from the townspeople, including Joseph Lee Heywood, the acting cashier, who refused to open the bank's safe despite threats and violence. The citizens, armed with whatever weapons they could find, bravely defended their town, resulting in the death of two gang members and the retreat of the rest. Heywood's steadfastness cost him his life, but his actions, along with those of the townspeople, thwarted the robbery. The book serves as a tribute to Heywood's heroism and the collective courage of Northfield's citizens, emphasizing the triumph of integrity and community spirit over criminality.
