How did Billy the Kid really die? The controversy.
"I have been researching and studying the life of Billy the Kid for at least four decades,” says Bell. This is my third—and final—book on his short and violent life, and I believe it’s finally time to tell the truth about one of the biggest lies in the entire saga.”
In The Final Word, Bell contends the “contorted and ridiculous Pat Garrett version” of how the Kid died is “a total lie.” “I don’t believe Billy was walking in his stocking feet across the parade ground to get some beef,” says Bell. “I don’t believe he was armed with a Colt Thunderer.”
Bob Boze Bell is known as America's Western Storyteller. He is an artist, author, writer and serves as executive editor of True West magazine. Bell is a popular, sought-after figure in television documentaries about the Old West, appearing as an expert in dozens of Wild West history shows. Bell won an Emmy Award as Executive Producer of the PBS special, Outrageous Arizona, a zany look at the state's centennial, that he also wrote and helped direct. As an author, Bell has brought to life Billy the Kid, Geronimo, Doc Holliday, Wyatt Earp and Wild Bill Hickok in his best-selling Illustrated Life and Times series. His books Classic Gunfights I, II and III are must-reads about the most important Old West gunfights. Bell’s Bad Men is now in its fourth printing, while his illustrated autobiography, The 66 Kid: Raised on the Mother Road, gives personal insight into the passions that have driven him on his lifelong quest to interpret the history of the American West for audiences around the world.
