Legions of bluegrass fans know the name Otto Wood from a ballad made popular by Doc Watson, telling the story of Wood's crimes and his eventual end. However, few know the history of this Appalachian figure beyond the version heard in song. Trevor McKenzie reconstructs Wood's life, tracing how he became a celebrated folk hero.
