What turned Atlanta professional man John Henry Doc Holiday into a stone cold killer? What was Docs weapon of choice? Who really killed Pat Garrett? Did Wyatt Earp ever track down his brother Virgils killer? What minister of the gospel became the wests deadliest paid killer? Who was the wildest of Butch Cassidys Wild Bunch? What catastrophe almost wiped out the cattle business in 1888? What were the wests greatest gold strikes and how were they discovered? Does the ghost of pioneer Brit Bailey still stalk the prairie near Old Brazoria? Author Murphy answers these intriguing questions and many other in this book aptly titled Ghosts, Gold Diggers and Gun Slingers, which is the product of a lifetime of research and several years of writing and rewriting.
