HURLED INTO ETERNITY The Story of the Earps in Tombstone, 1880-1882 by Robert Briggs The most famous Earp brothers - Virgil, Wyatt, and Morgan- spent only approximately two years in Tombstone, Arizona. yet, during this short period of time, they were involved in some of the most memorable events in the history of the Western frontier. Wyatt Earp, in particular, left an indelible imprint on the image of the American hero and remains the prototype of the courageous Western marshal. So much so, that if Wyatt Earp had not lived and set this standard of the stoic, relentless lawman, there may have never been such characters as John Wayne's Marshal Cogburn in "True Grit" and Gary Cooper's Marshal Kane in "High Noon." In this unique study Robert Brigs explores the factual events of the "Gunfight at the OK Corral" and the complex personal relationships that led up to it and to the even more important aftermath. The love/hate triangle between Wyatt, Josephine Sarah Marcus, and Sheriff Johnny Behan, for example, is analyzed - placing new emphasis on the motivations of these three historical figures. In addition, the author explains why we in 21st Century America are still so fascinated by the character and the courage that the Earps exhibited in the Arizona Territory of the last 19th Century.
