Frank James

Frank James (1843-1915) was an American outlaw and member of the notorious James-Younger gang, alongside his brother Jesse James. Born in Missouri, he became infamous for his involvement in bank and train robberies during the late 19th century. Unlike his brother, Frank was less violent and eventually surrendered to authorities in 1882. After serving time, he lived a quieter life, working in various businesses. Frank's legacy is intertwined with the romanticized view of the American West and outlaws, often depicting the tension between law and rebellion in post-Civil War America.
