First published in 1927, "Tombstone" defined the legend of lawman-gunfighter Wyatt Earp. A mixture of fact and fiction, Walter Noble Burns's portrayal of Earp has profoundly influenced subsequent generations of historians, novelists, and screen writers. But Burns' book covers much more of Tombstone Arizona's history than just the Earp brothers, introducing the reader to such colorful characters as Curly Bill, John Slaughter, Indian Charlie, Coyote Smith, and John Ringo. This important book was the result of careful research and interviews of old-timers who knew Tombstone in its roaring days. - Summary by Dale Barkley
