Tombstone through images and captions

Jane Eppinga’s history of Tombstone traces the Arizona town’s rise after silver was discovered nearby in 1878 and its place in the lore of the American Old West. More than 200 images, accompanied by informative captions, cover the people associated with the town—from lawmen and outlaws to the wider cast of its frontier history—as well as its saloons, brothels, Boot Hill cemetery, and the films inspired by Tombstone. The gunfight at the O.K. Corral and the figures of Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday are part of this account, alongside the places and stories that shaped the town’s reputation.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in Arizona and Southwestern history.
  • Those who enjoy illustrated histories of the American Old West.
  • Readers curious about Tombstone’s historic sites and their portrayal in film.

Book overview

Tombstone sits less than 100 miles from the Mexico border in the middle of the picturesque Arizona desert and also squarely at the heart of America's Old West. Silver was discovered nearby in 1878, and with that strike, Tombstone was created. It soon grew to be a town of over 10,000 of the most infamous outlaws, cowboys, lawmen, prostitutes, and varmints the Wild West has ever seen. The gunfight at the O.K. Corral made Wyatt Earp and John Henry Doc Holliday legendary and secured Tombstone's reputation as The Town Too Tough to Die. In this volume, more than 200 striking images and informative captions tell the stories of the heroes and villains of Tombstone, the saloons and brothels they visited, the movies they inspired, and Boot Hill, the well-known cemetery where many were buried.
