The Gunfighters by McCarty, Lea Franklin is a comprehensive historical account of the American West and the legendary gunfighters who were a part of it. The book covers the period from the mid-1800s to the early 1900s and includes stories of famous gunfighters such as Wild Bill Hickok, Wyatt Earp, and Doc Holliday.The author provides an in-depth look at the lives of these men, including their upbringing, their experiences in the Civil War, and their eventual involvement in the Wild West. The book also explores the social and cultural factors that contributed to the rise of the gunfighter, including the expansion of the railroad, the gold rush, and the conflicts between settlers and Native Americans.Through extensive research and firsthand accounts, McCarty paints a vivid picture of the gunfighter lifestyle, including the codes of conduct and the violence that often accompanied it. He also delves into the myths and legends that have grown up around these men, separating fact from fiction and providing a more nuanced understanding of their place in history.Overall, The Gunfighters is an engaging and informative read that offers a fascinating glimpse into a bygone era and the colorful characters who inhabited it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
