Otherwise superclean and bright. 320pp. NOTE: Cannot ship outside U.S. via Global Priority -- Surface or Airmail only. From the publisher: 'Here is the master's take on the hallowed Western, as expertly crafted as the Spenser novels, and with the full weight of American history behind it. It is the winter of 1879, and Dodge City has lost its snap. 31-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 sheriff, meeting up with the likes of Doc Holliday, Clay Allison, and Bat Masterson and encountering the love of his life, showgirl Josie Marcus. While navigating the constantly shifting alliances of a largely lawless territory, Earp finds himself embroiled in a simmering feud with Johnny Behan, which ultimately erupts in a deadly gunbattle on a dusty street.' Price: 10.00 USD
