《学校图书馆杂志》(School Library Journal)书评
Gr 5-6-- Although only a teenager during his ``notorious'' years, Henry McCarty became a celebrity known as Billy the Kid, and he has been a legend ever since. Green and Sanford have put together a factual, informative book that is illustrated mostly with photographs of people and places associated with Billy (only two have been found of him). An excellent supplement is a recent article and commentary--larded with fascinating peripheral details--by Bob Boze Bell from Arizona Highways (August, 1991). Gunman, lawman, horseman, showman, brave man, and dead man when he was shot in the back of his head by a hired killer, James Butler Hickock lived 39 rough and exciting years. This brief glimpse of one of our mid-19th century ``Wild West'' heroes is understandably written and filled with black-and-white photographs. Most of the books on the eight-item list of suggested readings are out of print or inaccessible to young readers; the index lacks entries for several places mentioned. However, the book is a fine introduction to a man who, according to a bronze tablet at his birthplace in Illinois, helped make the West ``A safe place for women and children.'' --George Gleason, Department of English, Southwest Missouri State University, Springfield (c) Copyright 2010.

Easy-to-read, sketchy texts relate the exploits of famous Westerners. Although the authors claim these stories are all derived from 'first-hand reports,' too many of the events seem to be based on rumor and speculation. The tone of the books is often admiring - even when the subject is a notorious criminal. Bib., ind. (c) Copyright 2010. The Horn Book, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.

《书目》(Booklist)书评
In this revised edition of an entry in the Outlaws and Lawmen of the Wild West series, first published in 1992, the authors pick out the few bits of verifiable fact from the thicket of legends that has grown around this most renowned of outlaws. Along with retracing the brief career of the lad actually born Henry Antrim, this is a character study that portrays him as irresistibly charming to men and women alike. In the authors' view, he was led to a life of crime by bad companions, but then took to it willingly enough a scenario that may have some resonance with young readers facing or seeing the results of similarly unwise choices. Illustrated with a mix of period photos and modern movie stills, and capped by on-target lists of print and Web resources, this tale of the Kid's short, violent career will feed an interest in bad men, but may prompt some self-examination too.--Peters, John Copyright 2009 Booklist
