Requests:  0 Summary:  "Dodge City, Kansas, is a place of legend. The town that started as a small military site exploded with the coming of the railroad, cattle drives, eager miners, settlers, and various entrepreneurs passing through to populate the expanding West. Before long, Dodge City's streets were lined with saloons and brothels and its populace was thick with gunmen, horse thieves, and desperadoes of every sort. By the 1870s, Dodge City was known as the most violent and turbulent town in the West. Enter Wyatt Earp and Bat Masterson. Young and largely self-trained men, the lawmen led the effort that established frontier justice and the rule of law in the American West, and did it in the wickedest place in the United States. When they moved on, Wyatt to Tombstone and Bat to Colorado, a tamed Dodge was left in the hands of Jim Masterson. But before long Wyatt and Bat, each having had a lawman brother killed, returned to that threatened western Kansas town to team up to restore order again in what became known as the Dodge City War before riding off into the sunset. The true story of their friendship, romances, gunfights, and adventures, along with the remarkable cast of characters they encountered along the way (including Wild Bill Hickock, Jesse James, Doc Holliday, Buffalo Bill Cody, John Wesley Hardin, Billy the Kid, and Theodore Roosevelt) has gone largely untold-- lost in the haze of Hollywood films and western fiction, until now"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 978.176 Cl Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 978.176 Clavin Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kahuku P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 978.176 Clavin Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 978.176 Cl Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Nonfiction 978.176 Cl Checked out 04/29/2024 Add Copy to MyList Lihue Public Library Adult Nonfiction 978.176 Cl Checked In   Add Copy to MyList McCully-Moiliili Public Library Adult Nonfiction 978.176 Cl Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Salt Lake-Moanalua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 978.176 Cl Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Wailuku Public Library Adult Nonfiction 978.176 Cl Checked In   Add Copy to MyList
