Tombstone: An Iliad of the Southwest

About this film

LibriVox recording of Tombstone: An Iliad of the Southwest by Walter Noble Burns. Read in English by DaleBarkley. First published in 1927, "Tombstone" defined the legend of lawman-gunfighter Wyatt Earp. A mixture of fact and fiction, Walter Noble Burns's portrayal of Earp has profoundly influenced subsequent generations of historians, novelists, and screen writers. But Burns' book covers much more of Tombstone Arizona's history than just the Earp brothers, introducing the reader to such colorful characters as Curly Bill, John Slaughter, Indian Charlie, Coyote Smith, and John Ringo. This important book was the result of careful research and interviews of old-timers who knew Tombstone in its roaring days. - Summary by Dale Barkley For further information, including links to online text, reader information, RSS feeds, CD cover or other formats (if available), please go to the LibriVox catalog page for this recording.
