More DescriptionIt is the winter of 1879, and Dodge City has lost its snap. Thirty-one-year-old Wyatt Earp, assistant city marshal, loads his wife and all they own into a wagon and goes with two of his brothers and their women to Tombstone, Arizona, land of the silver mines. There, Earp becomes deputy sheirff, meeting up with the likes of Doc Holliday, Clay Allison, and Bat Masterson, and encountering the love of his life, showgirl Josie Marcus.
