Rezensionen

I got this book for research on the Apache. It was well written but you need to be aware that some of the things in the book are speculative as there is very little known about this warrior woman. It did give some good insight into the Apache life and the women's place in the tribes. The main events are verifiable but many of the details aren't and are taken from unverified sources or speculation.

Published by the Arizona Department of Highways, this is part of a series of history books about the the state. As the title suggests this volume is about Tombstone and surroundings.
Tombstone developed around a silver strike made in 1877 and this volume chroincles some of the main characters, famous and not, who made their mark on the city. Some are well known such as Ike Clanton, Wyatt Earp, Johnny Ringo, "Doc" Holliday, Bat Materson and Big Nose Kate. Others such as the Rev. Endicott Peabody, C. S. Fly and Allan English helped bring civilization and law to Tombstone but over time, their contribution has been forgotten.
The 17 essays are brief but documentation is included for those readers who wish to read more about the characters of early Tombstone.
