Whether a pirate, a gunslinger, a gangster, or a desert fiend, you aren t born an outlaw you become one. These rebels rose up against injustice; they yearned for great open spaces. From the monopoly of the maritime powers to the advent of industrialism, they defied everything, and in doing so they signed their own death warrants. From train robbers Jesse James and Bruce Reynolds, to Lawrence of Arabia and IRA-activist Bobby Sands, to duos like Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday or Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid their armed exploits are wellknown, but their true cause has often gone unheard. Unable to tolerate arbitrary justice, brazen profiteering, or the oppression of the poor, these exceptional men and women rebelled and became feared outlaws. First seen as nothing but dreaded bandits, today they provoke the rapt fascination of all who secretly harbor a thirst for rebellion.

Laurent Maréchaux was a student activist, which landed him in prison for a brief period. He then lived in Italy, and the U.S.A., where he embarked on a Jack London-esque life of forestry and the great outdoors. In the early 1980s he sojourned with the Mujahideens of Afghanistan. He founded Solidarité Afghanistan and worked for several magazines before launching a communications agency in Paris. In 2001, he cut ties and wandered the world. He is the author of three novels, and reports regularly from conflict zones, notably for the French magazine XXI.

gebunden. Condizione: Neu. Neu -Weder der Pirat noch der Bankräuber oder auch der freiwillige Eremit werden als solcher geboren, sie werden zu einem gemacht. Diese Rebellen wehren sich gegen Ungerechtigkeit und Willkür und stellen die Obrigkeit des Staates in Frage. Ob Jesse James und Bruce Reynolds, Lawrence von Arabien oder IRA-Aktivist Bobby Sands, Duos wie Wyatt Earp und Doc Holliday oder Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid - ihre Taten sind bekannt, ihre Beweggründe sind es meist nicht. Sie konnten in der Regel Armut, Ungerechtigkeit oder Ausbeutung nicht länger ertragen und wurden zu Außenseitern der Gesellschaft mit eigenen Gesetzen. Ihre zumindest teilweise Rehabilitierung steht bis heute aus, diese und ihre veränderte Wahrnehmung der Gesellschaft über das Verbrechen hinaus beschäftig dieses Buch.
