For the purposes of my story, I simplified a very complex historical situation, the Lincoln County war. For those who are interested in further background, I recommend Joel Jacobsen’s book, Such Men as Billy the Kid.
For help with my rusty Spanish, I thank Miguel Martinez and Luisandra Reynoso. All mistakes are mine.
For being my “first readers” and for always giving me encouraging and best of all, honest feedback, thanks, Barbara and Joan.
For “Calico Cait.”
And for the rest of the Farrell family: Jack, Dee, and John. Without the “White Rabbit,” I never would have gotten to New Mexico for the first time those many years ago.
