A coupla years back I talked to Lee Silva who wrote Vol 1 of Wyatt Earp A Biography Of the Legend. This tome take you up through the cow town years. It doesn't seem that Lee will finish his 3 vol set.
Lees take on it was that Wyatt was hired by the Rail Road to rid AZ of the Cowboy Outlaw element. Lee also felt that Wyatt was an honest man at heart.
Another take was in an article in the American Rifle Man magazine, which was about a Colt Calvary SAA and the Troopers reminiscences of 1880's Tombstone. The Troopers take was that the Earp's were Pimps and Gamblers and as such were low life's.
