When he himself was finally shot and killed in Lincoln County, New Mexico in 1881 at the advanced age of twenty~one, the Kid was famous throughout the country as the boy who, so he boasted, had killed a man for every year of his life. In The Authentic Life of Billy the Kid the story of William Bonney is told by the lawman who ended his notorious career. Pat Garrett was sheriff of Lincoln county when he cornered and killed Billy the Kid on the night of July 14, 1881. Between that date and April, 1882 when Garrett's book appeared, eight lurid "dime novels" had glorified and falsified the Kid, making him into a murderous super~outlaw. Garrett's book was attempt to tell the more genuine story of a young, reckless cowhand who became a cattlerustler in the Texas Panhandle, and a hired gun. Garret explains the public sympathy which the citizens of the Southwest often accorded youths like Bonney. He also challenges the legends surrounding the twenty~one kills, claiming that the Kid shot no more than twelve, and possibly as few as seven, men. While uniquely positioned to write this story, Pat Garrett was a somewhat unlikely hero. A long~time cowhand and buffalo~hide hunter, Garrett settled down in Lincoln County as a rancher and, ultimately, peace officer. He had often been on the threshold of a gunman's life himself, and was thoroughly familiar with their habits and haunts. Garrett details the daring manhunt that led to Bonney's capture, his trial and sentence to be hanged, his deadly escape from the Lincoln County jail (which, Garrett writes, couldn't "hold a cripple"), as well as the final night of the Kid's life . and the beginning of Garrett's fame. The Authentic Life of Billy the Kid combines the best elements of eyewitness history with the dramatic flair of a great Western novel. It is the clearest account we have of the meteoric career of the man some thought of as a murdering fiend, and others as the Robin Hood of the Southwest.…
