Customer Reviews

Great book

Enjoyed this book very much. Braun has a great way of mixing fact with fiction. Read the Biographys and then enjoy this book

A triumph of brain for braun

Matt Braun has a reputation here in the UK for writing 'faction' westerns where he novelises historical fact. This book is a fine companion piece to his "Doc Holliday", being a fictional account, based on recorded history, of the cowboys v lawmen conflict in 1880s Arizona climaxing with the deadly shootout at the OK Corral and its bloody aftermath. The book is very close to truth but also a fine piece of writing - a good read which brings each scene to life and has good believable dialogue. Highly recommended.
