From Henry McCarty to William H. Bonney: The True Story as I Lived It.By Andrew MouserLength7h 40m
About this audiobook
What if Billy the Kid finally got to tell his own story?
Not the dime-novel legend. Not Pat Garrett's version. His.
I am Henry McCarty. I am William H. Bonney. I am the Kid the newspapers made.
From the stinking alleys of Five Points, New York to the alkaline dust of Silver City where I buried my mother and became an orphan at 15. From a piece of stolen butter that made me a fugitive, to the Arizona Territory gambling halls where I fired my first shot. From the murder of John Tunstall - the only man who ever looked at me like a son - to riding with the Regulators, the Five-Day Battle that burned Lincoln to the ground, and the lonely years as the most wanted boy in New Mexico.
