  • ringo!

  • does this sell on dvd?

  • ol Wyatt.

  • No problem Songsmith. I am an avid western history buff and have always looked for some insight as to who the real Wyatt Earp was and not just folklore. I found it on PBS. I even traveled to Tombstone, Arizona to get a glimpse inside the life of Wyatt Earp, it is much the same today as it was 150 years ago (unbeleivable experience). Glad you enjoyed it. Good luck, history hunting.

  • This is the best documentary on Wyatt Earp. To see the full version, google PBS American Experience: Wyatt Earp.

  • @juniorsdream Thank you. A lot of these sheriff's got their jobs because they were known to be people who were comfortable with guns. Several were asked to leave a town once they, "cleaned" it up because society didn't want that kind of people living with them as neighbors. Some of the real gun slingers were serial killers and only used their guns to challenge other would-be gunslingers. And the dime novels from back east would pick up a name in th west and just make them out to be heros.
