Forget everything you know about Clyde Barrow and Bonnie Parker. In Go Down Together, Jeff Guinn combines exhaustive research with surprising, newly discovered material to tell the real tale of two kids from a filthy Dallas slum who fell in love and then willingly traded their lives for a brief interlude of excitement and fame - and whose devotion to each other was as real as their overblown reputation as criminal masterminds was not.
