Bücher von Robert K. DeArment

Think gunfighter, and Wyatt Earp or Billy the Kid may come to mind. But what of Jim Moon? Joel Fowler? Zack Light? A host of other figures helped forge the gunfighter persona, but their stories have been lost to time. Celebrated western historian Robert DeArment here offers more biographical portraits of lesser-known gunfighters.

DeArment attempts to separate (Hollywood) myth from reality as he records the history and lifestyle of Wyatt Earp, Doc Holliday, Poker Alice and many more professional gamblers who helped shape the newly-won western territories from the Klondike to New Mexico.
