Title: Helldorado: Bringing the Law to the Mesquite by William M. Breakenridge, Richard Maxwell Brown ISBN: 0-8032-6100-4 Publisher: Univ of Nebraska Pr Pub. Date: August, 1992 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $17.95 |
Average Customer Rating: 3.33 (3 reviews)
Rating: 5
Summary: One of the best books on Tombstone
Comment: The only truly first hand account of the vendetta between Earp and the Cowboys. Breakenridge is obviously sympathetic to the Cowboys therefore his work has constantly been belittled by the Earp worshippers. Of course what does he know? He was only there. The Earp Idolators can't stand that he has left a first hand account of what really happened. They'd rather see the events through the filter of Burns and Lake. But this book is the real deal. Read it and understand.

Summary: Helldorado- Bringing the Law to the Mesquite
Comment: If you would like to read about how the non Wyatt Earp supporters felt about "Tombstone" back then read this book.
Rating: 2
Summary: This is a greatly Revised edition of the orginal work.
Comment: Having read the orginal version of Helldorado 20 years ago, anticipation of again reading this first hand account of Tombstone days quickly lead to disappoint due to the blatant revisions in this book. For example, the chapter about John Ringo has been completely omitted and substitutions based on author Jack Burrows's derogatory comments from the Gunfighter Who Never Was have been substituted. Orignal photographs have also been omitted. Since William Breakenridge was actually acquainted with the people and times he wrote about, why should a modern revisionist feel compelled to correct his original observations and opinions and thus distort history? If an author has a different viewpoint, then let him/her write their own version, not use the title of another's work.
