Wish I had a dollar for every time someone asked me what gun Wyatt Earp used in the Gunfight Behind the O.K. Corral.
The biggest misconception about Wyatt is that he was a glory-seeking, big-mouthed braggart.
If you ask me, Glenn Boyer never made the most of his many gifts and opportunities. He could have been a bright light in the field, but he chose another path.
Nobody can touch Western writers Gary L. Roberts, Jack Burrows, John Boessenecker and Robert K. DeArment.
For my money
