Author James B. Mills has compiled the definitive biography for one of the greatest figures of the old west, weeding out folklore from facts about the famous outlaw. Did The Kid come face to face with another famous gunslinger, Jesse James in Las Vegas? Is there any chance The Kid didn’t die in 1881, as some have speculated? These are just a few topics the author tackles in “Billy The Kid.”
Mills examines the evidence of Billy The Kid’s birth in New York, and his eventual migration to New Mexico. After losing his mother to tuberculosis, the orphaned teenager became entangles in the Lincoln County War. The research is impressive, and Mills presents the most detailed account of Billy The Kid’s short life.
