“It isn’t the severity of punishment that keeps a man from going wrong, it’s the certainty of it.” Taken from the book ‘The Barrier” by Rex Beach

“Another giant step forward in the Earpiana genre as told by the City of Tombstone’s durable historian and commentator. The work is straight talk, hard hitting, and offers no excuses or apologies. Wyatt Earp on the manhunt, his deadly posse to back his play - and hell rode with them” James J. “Jim” Schiffer, Sheriff Chicago Corral of The Westerners

JUSTICE is defined as “the administering of deserved punishment.” REVENGE is defined as “to exact punishment or expiation for a wrong”. Deputy United States Marshal Wyatt Earp saw no distinction between the two. He acted ... with extreme prejudice!” Michael M. Hickey Earpiana Author and Commentator

“It takes a resolute man not to make mistakes when he gets to acting as his own law.” Wyatt Earp
