| Summary | "The Story of Cole Younger, by Himself" by Cole Younger is an autobiography written in the early 20th century. This historical account narrates the life of Cole Younger, a Missouri Guerrilla Captain and outlaw, detailing his experiences during the turbulent Civil War era and the infamous Northfield Raid. The book offers a personal perspective on Younger’s life, including his childhood, the political strife surrounding his family, and his activities as a guerrilla fighter." "At the start of the autobiography, Cole Younger introduces himself and the purpose of his narrative, which is to provide an authentic account of his life and correct misconceptions propagated by sensationalist writings. He reflects on the heavy political tensions in Missouri during his boyhood that eventually led him into a life of violence and conflict, particularly after the brutal murder of his father. The opening chapters also recount poignant family memories and the harrowing events that shaped his path toward becoming a guerrilla fighter, illustrating the deep personal and familial impacts of the Civil War."
