Welcome, history buffs and true crime enthusiasts! On Today's episode of The Cowboy Up podcast we have Author Mark Archuleta with us and we're diving deep into the extraordinary, perplexing, and often contradictory life of Henry Starr – a man who defied easy labels.
Was he a product of the rough-and-tumble Indian Territory, or was a life of crime his destiny? Starr, a Cherokee outlaw, an author, and even a recipient of a presidential pardon, lived more lives than most. We'll explore why this bank robber, who was described as the opposite of brutal, garnered respect even from lawmen. Listen in as Mark unravels the enigma of Henry Starr:
Was he a gentleman bandit, driven by injustice or greed? And in the end, does he deserve to be remembered as a folk hero, or something far more complex?
