Located on the Southwest Trail that connected St. Louis to Texas; the town of Washington was established in 1824 in the southwest corner of Arkansas. Named after the first president of the United States; Washington is an example of a true American town with the city streets bearing the names of famous countrymen. American icons such as James Bowie; Sam Houston; and Davy Crockett all passed through this unique community. One of its citizens; a local blacksmith; made a knife for Bowie; which became infamously known as the Bowie Knife. During the last two years of the Civil War; Washington became the capital of the Confederate government of Arkansas. In later years; it was bypassed by the railroad; and the town faced decline. In the 20th century; concerned citizens pushed for its restoration; and today Washington consists of a state park that continues to tell the story of this unique community to future generations.

They have them in the first page that supose to be set in 1932 as Bonnie already hurt using morphine and calling Clyde Daddy. It was Blanch who called Buck Daddy cause he as a bit older than her. She pointed that out in her book.1 of 5 people found the following review helpful. CrapBy TeehlaIts a short play when I ordered it; said nothing about being a play... I spent more money hoping it would be a new book about them than anybook I already have or bought... IM A HUGE BONNIE AND CLYDE FAN and Im pretty ticked off right now.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Spare and theatricalBy Michelle CarterThe other two reviews of this play so far are just goofy. Yes; its a play. I just saw a beautiful; sexy production of it in San Francisco. The playwright isnt entering the world of the play sensationally; hes entering it poetically. Silences; wordless movement; powerful images; and strange spare moving exchanges between two notorious murderers near the end of their lives.
