Before he was Billy the Kid, he was Henry McCarty, a boy shaped by loss, survival, and a lawless frontier that offered no second chances. From a childhood marked by hardship, to the chaos of the Lincoln County War, to the final moment in a darkened room in Fort Sumner, this is the story rarely told the way it was lived.
