Thanks for supporting this authors work DHS, I enjoyed this presentation immensely. As a lifelong Dallas resident, I've heard of Bonnie & Clyde's connection(s) to Dallas for years through old newspapers but never saw the pathways, roads, and connections to the areas (Lancaster, Irving, West Dallas, etc.) as they are today. Very informative and interesting.
I love John Neal Phillips's work on Bonnie and Clyde. Anytime I see a new book or a lecture, I go right for it! He's an amazing writer and a great historian!
Clyde played any instrument he could get his hands on. He really loved the sax though, so that's why he was a known sax player. He played guitar, ukulele, flute, piano. Bonnie also played piano and sang.
Interesting historical note: Not sure if still occurring today, but for at least 6 decades following the 1934 demise of B&C, many a Texas Lawman have made an after dark stop by the Western Heights Cemetery on Ft Worth Ave @ Navarro St in West Dallas to p!$$ on Clyde Barrow’s grave. Allegedly one such stop occurred in 1992 following a few Shiner Boch drafts at the old DPA club in downtown Dallas.
When is the next B & C presentation by Mr. Phillips at the Dallas Historical Society? Will Mr. Phillips ever offer the B & C bus tours again?

I like this guy, because he tells the truths. Not the biased truths of the media.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
