Wyatt is the first to approach the cell, but the force of the door bursting from its hinges sends him tumbling backward over the desk, with the door landing on him, caught at the edge of the desk. The noise draws the attention of everyone outside, yet no one moves to investigate. Inside, Doc Holliday and Luke Short have their weapons drawn and aimed at the cell, but they freeze at the sight unfolding before them: a wolf slowly emerges, its head lowered to fit its large body through the opening.

He was born with a curse and a gift— a gambler’s nerve, a killer’s aim, and a dying man’s calm. Before legend turned him into myth, John Henry “Doc” Holliday was a Southern dentist chasing fortune across a restless West. But when fate brought him to Tombstone, he stepped into a war that would stain the desert red and carve his name into history. Told with grit, grace, and the haunting beauty of the real frontier, Doc follows the man behind the myth—from Georgia to Dodge, from friendship to vengeance, from the clatter of saloons to the silence of Glenwood Springs.

Rico is a small, pale man, but he has guts, endurance and a steely single-mindedness. When Vettori sends the gang out to rob a local nightclub, Rico shoots a cop who pulls a gun on him. They get away, but Vettori is shocked. He had told Rico, no gunplay. That’s when Rico realizes that Vettori has gone soft. He’s too old to control the gang anymore. So Rico takes over.

Before it became iconic, it was accidental. Before it was pop art, it was procedure. Before it was remembered, it was thinking. The Avengers was never just a spy show. It was a cultural experiment—one that smuggled philosophy, intelligence culture, fashion, and quiet rebellion into living rooms under the cover of wit and elegance.

Tony Rossi was an Italian kid growing up on the streets of Chicago in the 1920s. His father is sick; his mother is working herself to death to care for three children, yet all Tony can think about is becoming an entertainer, an actor, a Star!

Who are the Jehovah's Witnesses? Many of us have seen or been visited by folks calling themselves Jehovah's Witnesses. Most of us have slammed the door in the faces of these hard working young men and women as they try to share their gospel with us. I, however, use to delight in conversation with such folks as these, not to be argumentative but to try and understand their doctrine.

But the truth is far more complex than the myth. In Tombstone: 1881, author Tim Simpson peels back more than a century of Hollywood gloss to reveal the real men behind the legend — Wyatt, Virgil, Morgan, and Warren Earp, Doc Holliday, and the rivals who faced them in the smoke of the O.K. Corral.

Let me begin by saying I am passionate about history. I love the lifestyles of the bygone eras. I love how tough and yet how simple life was. Sleeping under the stars was a regular life for some. Traveling the lands was the life for others. The book you are about to listen to is in the public domain. And for that, I am thankful. That way, I can keep it as much to the original as possible.

Cash Hollow: It is a short strip of road nestled between hills cutting through between two streets, Lake View and Austin springs. I grew up in the heart of the '80s; that was my era and, in my opinion, one of the best times for a young man to grow up.

What you are about to hear is a work of fiction; any names, living or dead, are a coincidence unless about. Even though this book deals with angels and demons engaging in conversation, the book is a representation of the spiritual world. It is the author's idea of how the unseen realm operates. He believes that the holy Bible is the word of God and that God's word is accurate. To that degree, he has built a story around God's redemptive power, the power of prayer in operation, the power of the Holy Spirit, and, of course, the angelic host.

Hollywood remembers the faces it creates—but it forgets the hearts it breaks.

It is just before the turn of the century where men were men and women were women there was no confusion in that fact people loved hard lives yet they made the best of what they had.
