Faulk, noted author and historian of the American West, looks beyond the saga of Wyatt Earp to recreate life in Tombstone. He describes a town founded on the nearby discovery of silver and populated by hard working, hard drinking men. He tells how the silver mines were discovered, how the town grew, how the boom ended, and even the hows and whys of the violence that became an integral part of the legend of Tombstone."

Sobre About Books
About Books (Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and OP books since 1985. Besides book fairs and mail-order catalogues, long-time collectors and dealers will remember our lengthy For Sale ads in the Antiquarian Bookman and similar magazines. Our inventory of over 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialties listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole. If you wish to visit us to examine specific titles, please provide 24 hours notice and we will make them available for your inspection. Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please, only between the hours of 8am and 10pm (west coast time).
