A former cowboy in Oklahoma Territory, a rogue with a Robin Hood quirk, called "King of the Oklahoma Outlaws" by Marshal Bill Tilghman - Bill Doolin served an apprenticeship in what was to be his chosen profession as a member of the Dalton gang. After the fiasco at Coffeyville in 1892, when all the Daltons but one were killed while trying to rob two banks simultaneously, Doolin gathered together the remnants of previous bandit packs and made them his own. These wild characters went on to rob trains, loot banks and otherwise thumb their noses at harrassed US marshals for the next four years until Doolin was killed by a heavy shotgun blast from ambush.
