The Early Days & Pecos Valley Life of James M. Miller: Reminiscences of Billy the Kid and John Chisum (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781731247810)

A FIRSTHAND ACCOUNT OF THE CIVIL WAR AND PIONEER ERA NEW MEXICO FROM JAMES M. MILLER...From his early Tom Sawyer-like boyhood in the backwoods of Missouri to his teenage years surviving the horrors of the Civil War, this firsthand account of 19th Century America by James M. Miller is a treasure trove for history lovers. And, after the Civil War's end, Miller trades one war for another when he journeys to New Mexico at the onset of the Lincoln County War. There he befriends legendary men such as Billy the Kid and John Chisum-the latter whose bedside Miller was at when the cattle king died. And perhaps Miller's most dangerous exploit of all: being a sheepman in the domain of cattlemen
