Description

Explore the true lives and stories of Wild Bill Hickok and Wyatt Earp, perhaps the most famous gunslingers and lawmen of the Wild West including the towns they tamed such as Abilene, Wichita, and Dodge City. Not forgotten is the gunfight at the O.K. Corral and the vendetta ride years later. We will separate fact from fiction.  For instance, did you know Wild Bill performed once at Cooks Opera house on South Ave in Rochester in a Wild West theatrical show? We will learn about the women in their lives including their lovers and wives from Calamity Jane to Josephine Earp. Tom will present an interesting character study with numerous photos of both men in different stages of their lives.
