By the time the wispy gray gun smoke cleared on that chilly, October afternoon, three men lay dying and three more were wounded on a street in Tombstone.

Braxton digs deep with years of painstaking research to find out about the tensions that led to the O.K. Corral street fight and whether the confrontation was fair. Was Wyatt Earp a hero, or just a hothead who couldn't walk away? Two things are certain: Tombstone had an abundance of silver and a shortage of saints back in 1881.
