Description
"In this deeply researched novel of Americas most celebrated outlaw, Mark Warren sheds light on the human side of Billy the Kid and reveals the intimate stories of the lesser-known players in his legendary life of crime. Warrens fictional composer and Santa Fe journalist, John Blessing, is assigned to report on a jailed prisoner who calls himself "William H. Bonney," but what begins as a formal interview evolves into an unexpected relationship and a self-examination of Blessings own cultured, city values. After the Kids death, Blessing embarks on a journey to find Billys comrades and acquaintances-those who loved the Kid . . . and others who despised him. Through the reporters interviews, the reader is exposed to the historical events and the influential people who helped to shape the Kids life. Was Billy Bonney a cold-blooded killer without a conscience, or was he a victim of the machinations of corrupt politicians in "the Santa Fe Ring"? Ride along with John Blessing as he unravels one of Western historys most fascinating enigmas"--"--,Provided by publisher.
