LISTEN TO "RIDE INTO THE OLD WEST" BY DREW AND ELISE GOMBER — Radio Show #1

Drew and Elise discuss Billy's early life from Indiana to Santa Fe to Silver City. "Billy learned to speak Spanish in Silver City, New Mexico." ... "his first crime was stealing a keg of butter ... he also stole Chinese Laundry." Billy the Kid considered John Tunstall a loyal friend ... although it didn't appear to be reciprocal. Learn more about the early days of Lincoln, New Mexico. "It's hard being a woman in Lincoln ... your father would determine what would happen in your life." One father hangs a man outside of his daughter's window ... only to ensure she would no longer socialize with him. Forceful and compelling ... Lincoln County history recounted by two of the finest historians in the Southwest.
