Description

About the Book

Hailed by "USA Today" as "one of McMurtry's best, " this chronicle of Billy the Kid follows the wild adventures of the West's most famous outlaw as he rides, romances, and shoots his way into the heart of American mythology.

Book Synopsis

From the bestselling, Pulitzer Prize-winning "absolute master of 'Western' prose," comes McMurtry's electrifying take on the classic tale of Billy the Kid, the teenage outlaw of the American Old West.

The first time I saw Billy, he came walking out of a cloud...

Welcome to the wild, hot-blooded adventures of Billy the Kid, the American West's most legendary outlaw. Larry McMurtry takes us on a hell-for-leather journey with Billy and his friends as they ride, drink, love, fight, shoot, and escape their way into the shining memories of Western myth. Surrounded by a splendid cast of characters that only Larry McMurtry could create, Billy charges headlong toward his fate, to become in death the unforgettable desperado he aspires to be in life. Not since Lonesome Dove has there been such a rich, exciting novel about the cowboys, Indians, and gunmen who live at the blazing heart of the American dream.

Review Quotes

The Seattle Times Storytelling at its best, the West at its fiercest, and McMurtry in his prime.

Time Anything for Billy does for the gunfighter what Lonesome Dove did for the trail-driving cowboy...wistful appeal, larger-than-life characters.

USA Today One of McMurtry's best...Stunning.
