Wyatt Earp: legendary frontier figure
Wyatt Berry Stapp Earp (March 19, 1848 – January 13, 1929) earned renown as a lawman, gambler, saloon operator, and gunslinger across the American West. Born in Monmouth, Illinois, he moved with his family to California in the 1860s and later served in positions such as city marshal in Wichita and Dodge City before settling in Tombstone, Arizona Territory. His remarkable survival of multiple deadly encounters—and never being wounded in any gunfight—bolstered his reputation as a fearless and adept marksman.
