"I never meant to fall in love with Jesse James, but I might
as well have tried to stop a tornado or a prairie fire. The
summer that sealed our fate, when we saw each other with new
eyes and our love began to grow, Jesse was all heat and
light, and I was tinder waiting for a match."
Zee
Mimms was just nineteen in 1864-the daughter of a stern
Methodist minister in Missouri-when she fell in love with
the handsome, dashing, and already notorious Jesse. He was
barely more than a teenager himself, yet had ridden with
William Quantrill's raiders during the Civil War.
"You'll marry a handsome young man," a palm reader
had told her. "A man who will make you the envy of many. But
. . . there will be hard times."
Zee and Jesse's
marriage proved the palmist right. Jesse was a dangerous
puzzle: a loving husband and father who kept his "work"
separate from his family, though Zee heard the lurid rumors
of his career as a bank robber and worse. Still, she never
gave up on him.
