About the Book

"Dink, dink, dink came the audible chime of the aluminum baseball bat as I was bringing it down - breaking one of Randy's bones with every ringing swing!" American Outlaw: Price of Pride is a galvanizing adventure of non-stop pulse-pounding action that will take you on a roller-coaster ride through worlds that most people only see on the big screen. From prison escapes, to prison gangs, outlaw bikers, to life on the run from the law, this book has it all. Peer through the eyes of Jimmy Maxwell as he takes you behind the violent prison walls and to the top of one of Oklahoma's most notorious and feared gangs. Be with him when he finally walks out of those cold institutional gates into the free world for the first time in 16 years! And stand with Jimmy - or against him - as the federal marshals go all out... to get him locked back behind them. American Outlaw is the first book in a non fictional, series on the life of the modern day outlaw Jimmy Maxwell. This autobiographical volume is uniquely framed around Jimmy's MSNBC 'Lockup' appearance, which not only brings the reader into the high-octane, adrenaline charged, and often thought provoking life of Jimmy Maxwell, but also how it feels to reveal his successes and failures on camera. This book contains violence, adult content and language which would not be appropriate for children.

About the Author :
JIMMY MAXWELL currently resides in the state of Oklahoma. A true Outlaw, Jimmy has been in and out of prison since the age of eighteen. Over the years he fought his way to the top of one of the most feared gangs in Oklahoma. He has been featured onMSNBC's 'Lockup', and soon to be onDiscovery channel's "I Almost Got Away With It." Jimmy has survived five different riots, and has escaped on multiple occasions from prison, jail and reform schools, as well as evading capture from the U.S. Marshals and the States Violent Crimes Fugitive Task Force, for months on end. He has narrowly avoided apprehension and death time and again... from which he now writes books and stories. Although Jimmy has since retired from gang life, he did so with honor and the blessing of those who love and are loyal to him, and still remains an extremely respected and influential member of the prison community on both State and Federal levels. He now uses his books, stories and influence to help others avoid the pitfalls of prison and drugs. Jimmy attends Tulsa Community College in pursuit of his literary career and is a dog trainer and animal activist, for Gone to the Dogs rescue program at DCCC and Parole-a-Pet (facebook). Teaching animals and humans alike, - there is a better way. "My choices have cost me years of family, friends, freedom on the outside - and, a lot more - Let the bad choices I made be a chance for you not to follow my path. And if you're just a voyeur into this type of world - welcome to the jungle and what lies beyond a prison wall. I'll hold nothing back as I take you inside places people pray not to end up in. You'll be safe reading this from your world and be glad you're not participating in it. Let my life be the life you live vicariously through." - Jimmy Maxwell

Review :
A BOOK THIS GOOD SHOULD BE ILLEGAL "As a former career criminal turned Hollywood screenwriter, let me tell ya - strap yourself in and take a ride on Jimmy Maxwell's no holds-barred, gloves off, roller coaster ride of crime!!! This isn't some spray over Maaco paint job that only scratches the surface of what it takes to be the chief lion in the den of thieves -- you'll be shown up close and brutishly personal what it took to be the boss. When he hits someone in this book, your jaw will feel it Jimmy takes you deep into the ruthless mentality of a convict on the run with an audacious pride for the moral street code of only inflicting harm upon those violating the unspoken laws of the jungle. And Maxwell knows who's good, and who's not, with surgical-like precision. He doesn't vilify what he was, but what he became, in visceral storytelling that keeps your eyes whipping through the pages to a climatic end. And like coming off a three-day binge, you'll only want more "American Outlaw" bristles with violent passion, howitzer wit, and a virtuoso style tell-all of what pride can do to us. The author mixes the Outlaw's horrors with a deep vein of mordant humor and reflective rage. Violence isn't glorified, but Jimmy didn't run from it -- When someone trespassed in his lair, they'd better be able to rumble. You'll be shown the Price of his Pride with dynamite suspense, loaded with thrills and wicked fun that few autobiographies can beat. And for those not in the crime life, this is as close as you can get without having to pick up a gun. Buy this book. It may save your life one day if you run into Jimmy Maxwell in a dark alleyway." - Brandon M. Wyse - Screenwriters Guild, Los Angeles, CA. "American Outlaw is a raw and unapologetic journey into the world of one of Oklahoma's most notorious inmates. In sincere and colorful language, Jimmy Maxwell conveys the complex, bewildering - and sometimes terrifying - truth of time spent running from the Law." -Michael Mason, editor, This Land magazine"
