About this listen

Was Billy the Kid really shot to death by Sheriff Pat Garrett on a July night in 1881? At the midpoint of the last century, an old man comes forth seeking a pardon for crimes committed. He says that he wants to die a free man - and that he is Billy the Kid. The incident leads to this examination of new facts, new interpretations, and new contradictions. It is the story of "Brushy" Bill Roberts, a man who laid claim to a legend. Originally published in 1955 by University of New Mexico Press.

A short but very interesting book about the claim made by "Brushy" Bill Roberts in the 1950's that he was indeed Billy The Kid. Evidence, affidavits that support his claim from people who knew Billy mostly support his claim, and his knowledge (especially for a non-learned man) give a lot of inside information, which I doubt could have been manufactured. His story is amazing, if true. And given the general demeanour of the man I am inclined to believe his claims (up to a point). But I'll now have to look at the other side of the story.
