Publisher's Synopsis
From his exploits during the Lincoln County War to his death at the hands of Pat Garrett, Billy the Kid's tale of Old West bloodshed is the stuff of legend.
From his first robberies to his days as a frontier gunslinger to his epic death, Billy the Kid remains perhaps the definitive legend of the Wild West. He was to outlaws what Wyatt Earp was to lawmen, an iconic figure whose legacy persists on to this day. Whether it was time with the infamous Regulators and his exploits during the Lincoln County War, or his dramatic escapes from custody culminating in his death at the hands of Pat Garrett in 1881, Billy the Kid is one of the most mythologized figures in American history. But how much of the myth is actually true? This is the real story of Billy the Kid.
