The Ballad of Ben and Stella Mae: Great Plains Outlaws Who Became FBI Public Enemies Nos. 1 and 2
Matthew Cecil
On August 25, 1938, Ben Dickson and his wife Stella Mae robbed the Corn Exchange Bank in Elkton, South Dakota. Two months later they hit a bank in nearby Brookings. Retrieving the Dicksons from the fog of history and the hype of the FBI's “Most Wanted” narrative, this volume tells the story of a damaged small-town girl and her petty criminal husband and their low-key crime spree.
