Books Tell You Why, Inc.

A Nearly Fine first edition/first printing with a cocked spine and little page edge soiling in an unblemished dust-jacket.

In this darkly comic novel, McMurtry tells the story of Billy, a down-on-his-luck drifter who is taken in by a tough old farmer named Lonesome and his brood of mischievous kids. Billy quickly learns that the only way to survive in this hardscrabble world is to hustle, lie, and steal. McMurtry's razor-sharp writing and poignant story make Anything for Billy a compelling read.; 8vo; 382 pages.
