The Truth About Wyatt Earp is the result of extensive research done by the author, Richard E. Erwin. After retiring from his career as a Criminal Defense Lawyer, he took up the task of ferreting out the truth surrounding the life and times of Wyatt Earp.He presents here solid evidence, based on old newspaper accounts, public records, documents buried in museums, state and national archives and libraries and reports of other researchers, to substantiate his view of what he believes to be The Truth About Wyatt Earp. Did you know... That Wyatt Earp was once indicted for horse stealing (He was never convicted.)? That there were four witnesses who could have testified that Tom McLaury was armed at the commencement of the O.K. Corral fight? That both Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday spent more than two weeks in jail in the custody of John Behan while the hearing on the O.K. Corral shoot-out was going on?The truth comes out in this illuminating essay on one of the most fascinating characters in history.
Richard E. Erwin spent more than forty-five years as a Criminal Defense Lawyer, defending thousands of criminal cases of every kind imaginable. The tough-talking, straight-shooting defense attorney once took a case before the California Supreme Court that not only saved his client's life, but also succeeded in overturning California's death penalty law as it then existed.He retired from law in 1984. With the help of his wife and contstant companion of over fifty years, Lyla, he took up the task of ferreting out the life and times of Wyatt Earp, separating fact from myth.He presents solid evidence based on old newspaper accounts, public records, documents buried in museums, state and national archives, libraries, and reports of other researchers to substantiate his view of what believes to be The Truth about Wyatt Earp.
