On the afternoon of 26 October 1881, in a vacant lot in Tombstone, Arizona, a confrontation between eight armed men erupted in a deadly shootout.
The gunfight at the O.K. Corral shaped how future generations came to view the old West. Wyatt Earp, Doc Holliday, and the Clantons became the stuff of
legends, but the truth is even better. Drawing on new material from private collections, including diaries, letters, and Wyatt Earps own hand-drawn sketch of the shootouts conclusion, Jeff Guinn gives us a startlingly different and far more fascinating picture of what the West was like.
