The career of the famous Western lawman begins after he takes over for the murdered sheriff of Ellsworth, Kan.

Earp tries to reduce the possibility of violence when fellow marshal Bat Masterson romances a woman whose boyfriend is an outlaw.

Earp resists forming a posse and instead uses American Indian scouts in his efforts to locate a killer.

Cowboys believe that the townspeople of Ellsworth insulted Confederate Army Gen. Robert E. Lee.

When Earp takes over as marshal of Wichita, his first challenge is a local group of vigilantes focused on lynching a local card dealer, despite evidence that the man acted in self-defense.

A man bent on revenge pays a gunman $1,000 to kill Wyatt Earp -- a gunman who claims to have faced Earp before.
