Charles Parrott: One of America's Most Successful Bank Robbers

His daughter, Susan Parrott, writes about his exploits in the new book Catch Me or Kill Me: The Saga of Charles Parrott—One of America's Best Bank Robbers. She'll sign copies September 17th at the Stillwell, Oklahoma train depot and September 19th at the Fayetteville Public Library.
