Book Review of Wyatt Earp : The Life Behind the Legend

Wyatt Earp : The Life Behind the Legend
reviewed on + 7 more book reviews


A thorough picture of a complicated person. The story gets bogged down in details at times, but most often you really appreciate the care and detail that illuminate complex events, like the famous shootout, and explain the troubled times.

The ending lines sum up the story well...he was not a good man, but a moral one.
