Book #10: Dodge City: Wyatt Earp, Bat Masterson, and the Wickedest Town in the American West, Tom Clavin
Wyatt Earp is perhaps one of the most storied and well known lawmen on the western frontier in the late 1800’s. Cattle driving combined with the presence of the railroad made cities across the western frontier bustling towns full of crime, corruption and carousing. And of all cities that needed taming, Dodge City, KS was perhaps the most notorious. This town of cowboys, gamblers, drunks and prostitutes had a reputation for wild and loose living. This is the story of how Wyatt Earp, Bat Masterson and a posse of other lawmen tamed the Wild West.
