In 1948 a childhood friend of Billy the Kid claimed Billy was still living and led investigators to a man in Texas known as William H. "Brushy Bill" Roberts. After iniitially denying it, Brushy finally agreed to confess his identity on the condition the investigator would help him obtain a pardon so he could die a free man. Over the course of several months Mr. Roberts provided many astounding proofs that he was the Kid of legend, including physical evidence and firsthand knowledge of many obscure aspects of the Kid's life. In addition, the investigator assisted Roberts with finding living acquaintances of Billy the Kid who signed sworn affidavits stating Roberts was the man they knew.

Now after more than 50 years Brushy's original story is available for the first time ever in paperback.

Industry Reviews

I have read a great many of the things written about Billy the Kid and other Westerners, including the great and the desperadoes and this book is the most satisfactory arrangement with supporting documentation that I have seen. It is too bad that the old man who called himself "Billy the Kid" could not have lived long enough to see another Governor of New Mexico. He might have obtained a just decision." President Harry S. Truman
