Sumario:For decades the Horrell brothers of Lampasas, Texas, have been portrayed as ruthless killers and outlaws, but author David Johnson paints a different picture of these controversial men.

Their initial confrontation with the State Police at Lampasas in 1873 marked the most disastrous shootout in Reconstruction history.
