This exciting addition to the Best of the West Biographies series focuses on separating the truth from the stories about Billy the Kid. Born Henry McCarty and also known as William H. Bonney, Billy the Kid started on the path of lawlessness when he was only a teenager. Throughout his short career, he engaged in large-scale cattle rustling, became a fugitive, and killed several men. He managed to escape from prison twice, but eventually was tracked down and killed.
