Synopsis

Billy the Kid: The Days That Made a Legend presents the story of Billy the Kid and the Lincoln County War as it unfolded, one event at a time.

Beginning decades before the outbreak of the Lincoln County War, this extensively researched chronology follows the people, places, rivalries, and events that ultimately converged in Lincoln County, New Mexico. It traces Billy the Kid from his early years as Henry McCarty and Henry Antrim through his arrival in New Mexico, his association with John Henry Tunstall and the Lincoln County Regulators, the violence of 1878, his pursuit by Pat Garrett, his dramatic escape from the Lincoln jail, and his death and burial at Fort Sumner in July 1881.

Beyond the central chronology, the book examines the major events of the Lincoln County War, the factions and individuals who participated in it, the later lives of its survivors, the sheriffs of Lincoln County, and the history of Billy the Kid’s grave.

Designed as both an accessible history and a reference work, The Days That Made a Legend brings together a remarkable collection of dates, events, people, and historical details for readers who want to understand not only Billy the Kid, but the world that created his legend.
