The late 19th century wa* a time
when (among other things) most o f
the world's lead out put was being
transferred to the A m erican
Southwest m the form o f bullets
Dr nodical I >> the residents o f die area
set to work distributing this lead
throughout die countryside fin e o f
these occasions was die Whisky
Glass War It u fmm this fascinating
lime and place that Larry Me Mur-
try has drawn his new novel
"Anything for B illy”
Thiv superb novel venfies Me Mur
try's reputation as a storyteller and
speaks o f a vast amount o f research
skillfully knitted together with
humor, insight and imagination
Seen thmugh the eyes o f a middle
aged, wealthy. Philadelphian named
Ben Sippy. the hook describes the
last day* in die life o f Billy Bone, aka
William Bones or Billy the Kid Hen
has travelled long (and painfully) to
experience the real West which he
finds to he nothing at all like the
dime novels he has been reading < and
writing) for mi many years
During the course o f this journey
Ben encounters a mixed hag o f
cowboys, gunflghters. unemployed
buffalo hunters and drifters hent on
exterminating one another for very
fuzzy reasons Chief among these
characters is young Billy Bone
Abused and neglected as a child. Bil
ly has grown into a restless, violent
ysning man A poor \K* who prefers
his shotgun to his Colt 45. Billy very
seldom kills in anger or prrmedita
lion and never with any remorse
Among Billy's friends, lovers, vic
tims and enemies arc Joe lanelady.
Billy’s friend through everything,
(or at least dc facto possessor) o f the
3 million acre Whisky Glass Rjnch.
Most W oolak. the 7 foot tall blaik
assassin who works for Isinglass;
and Katie Garza, who loved Billy,
broke him out o f jail and finally kill
cd him so that someone else
couldn't.
Because he hungers for genuine
ness, Ben Sippy loves them all
despite their v io le n t, erratic
behavior And because he and (by
extension) we are not forced by the
author to judge the morality o f Bil
ly 's o r his associates' actions, there
are no villians
Fans of Ijtrry McMurtry will find
this one o f his finest hooks The
details may seem curious to (hose of
us raised on TV westerns and John
Wayne movies hut my grandfather,
who was horn in Gray County Kan
sas. would have loved this book
"Anything for Hilly” can be found
at the Heppner Public Library along
