Wild for the West
Having been raised at a time when the Wild West was rarely far from the TV or our playground games, my own personal fascination with outrageous outlaws, sharp-shooting sheriffs and gritty gunslingers is deep-rooted. But perhaps due to the fanciful nature of many westerns, I’ve always struggled to truly believe the tales from the wild frontier. And none are more suited to the big screen than that of Henry McCarty, immortalised as Billy the Kid. It all kicks off on page 28.
