What can be learned from another retelling of the Tombstone saga? Recent revelations challenge the traditional view of Wyatt Earp's campaign against the Cow-boy confederation as a bloody personal feud a la western fiction. It was a seek and destroy mission sanctioned by the United States attorney general, the U.S. marshal and the Arizona Territory governor, following a year of corrupt law enforcement in league with the Cow-boys' livestock raids, stagecoach holdups and other atrocities. Presented in three sections, this book establishes the major players involved in the convergence on Tombstone, provides an account of Earp's activities during the 18 months prior to the final action and discusses the provenance and credibility of the "Otero Letter." Discovered in 2001, the letter--believed to be written by New Mexico Territory Governor Miguel Otero--offers evidence that Earp's party was given government aid. The author examines the details of the letter, including the shotgun dual between Earp and Curly Bill, the split between Earp and Doc Holliday, sanctuary for the Earp posse in Colorado and Holliday's extradition fight, Earp's covert assault resulting in Johnny Ringo's death, and the controversial courtship and marriage of Earp and Josephine Marcus.

The Gunfight at the OK Corral on 26 October 1881 is one of the most enduring stories of the Old West. It led to a series of violent incidents that culminated in the Vendetta Ride, in which Wyatt Earp, Doc Holliday, and several other gunslingers went after their rivals the Cowboys. Like most tales of the Wild West, the facts are buried under layers of myth, and the line between good guys and bad guys is blurry. Wyatt Earp, leader of the so-called "good guys", was charged with stealing horses in the Indian Territory in 1870 and jumped bail. Becoming a buffalo hunter and gambler, he got into several scrapes and earned a reputation as a gunfighter. Several times he helped lawmen arrest outlaws, but usually his assistance came more because of a personal grudge against the criminal than any real respect for law and order. He even got fired from a police job in Wichita for beating up a political rival. So it was in Tombstone. He settled there in 1879 along his three brothers and "Doc" Holliday. Virgil and Morgan Earp worked as lawmen. As the Earps became a power in the town, investing in some businesses and starting others, they were soon at loggerheads with the Clanton Gang, the so-called "Cowboys." In that time and place, honest cowboys called themselves "ranchers" and the term "cowboy" was reserved for rustlers and other unsavory characters. The Tombstone Cowboys had Cochise County sheriff John Behan in their pocket and the struggle between the Earps and Cowboys was partially a political rivalry. It was also because the Earps had invested in the stagecoaches and the Cowboys liked to rob them. There was an element of lingering differences over the Civil War as well, something common in Wild West feuds. The Earps and friends were mostly Republican Northerners, while the Cowboys were mostly Democrats and former Confederates. This distinction wasn't clear cut, however, as at least one Confederate veteran rode with the Earps. Brawls and threats between the two sides became more frequent and culminated in a showdown near the OK Corral. Several Cowboys were loitering around hoping to attack Doc Holliday, so the Earps and Holliday decided to arrest them on the grounds that they were carrying weapons in town. In the shootout three Cowboys were killed and Virgil and Morgan Earp wounded. The Cowboys thirsted for revenge and shot Morgan Earp in the back five months later. Virgil was crippled in a separate shooting. Taking Morgan's body to Tucson, the surviving Earp brothers and Holliday spotted Frank Stillwell, one of the Cowboys suspected of murdering Morgan. They shot him down. A large posse under John Behan, including many Cowboys, chased after the Earps but never caught them.

"Vor seinem Colt hatte selbst der Teufel Respekt!" (Mark Twain) Der Lieblingssatz des berühmten US Marshals: "Abenteuer? Ich habe sie nie gesucht. Weiß der Teufel wie es kam, dass sie immer dort waren, wohin ich ritt." Diese Romane müssen Sie als Western-Fan einfach lesen! An dem Morgen des Tages, an dem es geschah, herrschte in der graubraunen Kistenholzstadt Dodge City eine gespannte Atmosphäre. Die Stadt wartete auf die Reagan-Herde. Immer wenn der große texanische Rancher Arthur Reagan seine Herde nach Dodge City schickte, bedeutete das für die Stadt einen tollen Wirbel. Das lag nicht zuletzt daran, daß die siebeneinhalbtausend Rinder, die der Großrancher meistens auf den Trail brachte, von einer Crew von Treibern begleitet wurden, die sich einen Spaß daraus zu machen pflegte, die ganze Stadt auf den Kopf zu stellen. Meistens kam die Reagan-Herde im Herbst. In diesem Jahr aber kam sie schon im Frühjahr. Schon vor drei Tagen hatten Reiter berichtet, daß mehr als zehntausend Rinder auf dem Wege zum Arkansas wären! Das war ein Rekord, der niemals vorher (und auch niemals danach) erreicht worden ist. Arthur Reagan hatte die größte Herde auf den Trail geschickt, die jemals in diesem Gebiet unterwegs war. Eine solche Herde bedeutete für die Stadt, die als ihr Endziel bestimmt war, nicht nur Aufregungen, sondern auch enorme Einnahmen. Vor allem waren es die Salooner, denen es an diesem Vormittag schon in den Händen juckte. Sie spürten bereits die blanken Dollars, die sie den Boys aus den Taschen ziehen würden. Viele Wochen lang waren die vierunddreißig Treiber, angeführt von ihrem Trailboß James Austin, unterwegs. Und diesmal hatte der Rancher zum ersten Mal seinen neunzehnjährigen Sohn Terry mitgeschickt. Aber Terry Reagan war nur einer der Treiber; nichts weiter. So wollte es der Rancher – und so wollte es das ungeschriebene Gesetz der Savanne. Ein Herdentrail wurde immer nur von einem einzigen Mann geführt, und das konnte nur ein erfahrener alter Cowboy sein, wie in diesem Falle eben James Austin. Was die Unruhe in der Stadt verstärkte, war die Tatsache, daß ausgerechnet am vergangenen Abend fast fünfzig Büffeljäger in die Stadt gekommen waren, die sich erfahrungsgemäß nicht eben gut mit Trailcowboys vertrugen. Unten in den South-Quartieren hielten sich zwei Dutzend Pelztierjäger auf, die den Frühsommer abwarteten, um sich dann wieder auf den Weg in die Berge zu machen. Auch diese Leute vertrugen sich meist schlecht mit den Kuhtreibern aus dem Süden.

Wyatt Earp is one of the most legendary figures of the nineteenth-century American West, notable for his role in the gunfight at the O.K. Corral in Tombstone, Arizona. Some see him as a hero lawman of the Wild West, whereas others see him as yet another outlaw, a pimp, and failed lawman. Roy B. Young, Gary L. Roberts, and Casey Tefertiller, all notable experts on Earp and the Wild West, present in A Wyatt Earp Anthology an authoritative account of his life, successes, and failures. The editors have curated an anthology of the very best work on Earp—more than sixty articles and excerpts from books—from a wide array of authors, selecting only the best written and factually documented pieces and omitting those full of suppositions or false material. Earp’s life is presented in chronological fashion, from his early years to Dodge City, Kansas; triumph and tragedy in Tombstone; and his later years throughout the West. Important figures in Earp’s life, such as Bat Masterson, the Clantons, the McLaurys, Doc Holliday, and John Ringo, are also covered. Wyatt Earp’s image in film and the myths surrounding his life, as well as controversies over interpretations and presentations of his life by various writers, also receive their due. Finally, an extensive epilogue by Gary L. Roberts explores Earp and frontier violence.

Finalist for the 2014 Weber-Clements Book Prize for the Best Non-fiction Book on Southwestern America In popular culture, Wyatt Earp is the hero of the Gunfight at the O.K. Corral in Tombstone, Arizona, and a beacon of rough cowboy justice in the tumultuous American West. The subject of dozens of films, he has been invoked in battles against organized crime (in the 1930s), communism (in the 1950s), and al-Qaeda (after 2001). Yet as the historian Andrew C. Isenberg reveals in Wyatt Earp: A Vigilante Life, the Hollywood Earp is largely a fiction—one created by none other than Earp himself. The lawman played on-screen by Henry Fonda and Burt Lancaster is stubbornly duty-bound; in actuality, Earp led a life of impulsive lawbreaking and shifting identities. When he wasn't wearing a badge, he was variously a thief, a brothel bouncer, a gambler, and a confidence man. As Isenberg writes, "He donned and shucked off roles readily, whipsawing between lawman and lawbreaker, and pursued his changing ambitions recklessly, with little thought to the cost to himself, and still less thought to the cost, even the deadly cost, to others." By 1900, Earp's misdeeds had caught up with him: his involvement as a referee in a fixed heavyweight prizefight brought him national notoriety as a scoundrel. Stung by the press, Earp set out to rebuild his reputation. He spent his last decades in Los Angeles, where he befriended Western silent film actors and directors. Having tried and failed over the course of his life to invent a better future for himself, in the end he invented a better past. Isenberg argues that even though Earp, who died in 1929, did not live to see it, Hollywood's embrace of him as a paragon of law and order was his greatest confidence game of all. A searching account of the man and his enduring legend, and a book about our national fascination with extrajudicial violence, Wyatt Earp: A Vigilante Life is a resounding biography of a singular American figure.
