Summary
Wyatt Earp is regarded as the most famous lawman of the Old West, best known for his role in the Gunfight at the O.K. Corral in Tombstone, Arizona. But the story of his two-year war with a band of outlaws known as the Cowboys has never been told in full. Drawing on groundbreaking research into territorial and federal government records, John Boessenecker's 'Ride the Devil's Herd' reveals this long-forgotten chapter of Wild West history.
