Ed Schieffelin, his brother Al, and their partner Richard Gird, are legendary names in the story of Tombstone A.T. They formed a partnership that was at the core of Tombstone's discovery, and they left behind a remarkable record of testimony in Garner vs. Gird. This key lawsuit brought so many insights into the founding of Tombstone, and yet, their testimonies have never before been available to the public to read line by line, until now. In Tombstone's Founders and Pioneers Speak, author John D. Rose has published scans of the actual court recorded testimony along with related images and information, offering a glimpse into Tombstone's early beginnings that has never before been available. But the Schieffelins and Gird are not alone in this all important historical record, and J.B. Allen, Jim Burnett, The Corbin Brothers, Tombstone's first Mayor William Harwood, also offer testimony that can be read in its entirety here for the first time ever. Former Tombstone Marshal Virgil Earp also makes a brief appearance as well. The cover of this book comes from one of the many original Fly photos contained in the collections of John D. Rose.
