On a chilly October afternoon in 1881, two brothers named Tom and Frank McLaury were gunned down on the streets of Tombstone, Arizona, by the Earp brothers and Doc Holliday.

The deadly event became known as the legendary gunfight at the O.K. Corral, and in a quirk of fate, the brothers’ names became well-known, but only as bad men and outlaws. Did they deserve that reputation?

Join us on October 26 – the 131st anniversary of that fateful day – for an exciting author lecture and book signing in the Autry Store.

Author Paul Lee Johnson will sign copies of his new book, The McLaurys in Tombstone, Arizona: An O.K. Corral Obituary, and will discuss the events of the O.K. Corral gunfight from the viewpoint of the McLaurys. Pamela Potter, a McLaury descendant and president of the Wild West History Association, will also participate in the discussion.
