And Die in the West

"And Die in the West" presents the first fully detailed, objective narrative of the celebrated gunfight, of the tensions leading up to it, and of the bitter, bloody events that followed. Paula Mitchell Marks places the events surrouding the gunfight against a larger backdrop of a booming tombstone and the fluid, frontier enviroment of greed, factions and violence. In the process, Marks stips away many of the myths associated with the famous gunfight and of the West in general.
