Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid as I Knew Them

Cowboy, army guide, farmer, peace officer, and character in his own right, John P. Meadows knew or worked for many well-known characters. The recollections gathered here are based on Meadows's interviews with a reporter, a transcript of his reminiscences given at the Lincoln State Monument, and a talk he gave by invitation to refute inaccuracies in the 1930 MGM movie Billy the Kid.
