Warren Earp and tip

12/5/2019

The last two character profiles from "Vendetta Ride: The True Story Of Wyatt Earp" by Gregory Alan Burhoe, an historical novel available on Amazon.

Warren Earp is the youngest of the Earp brothers. Like the other Earps, Warren has a fiery temper, but he hasn't learned to control it. Deep inside, he has always felt small because of all his older brothers having such strength of character, and for their fame earned through feats of bravery and gun-slinging skill. Due to pride, Warren struggles to hide this insecurity, and is perhaps too eager to prove himself in a fight.

Daniel 'Tip' Tipton is another loyal ally of the Earp faction. He's been a miner, sailor and gambler. Tip has worked as a clerk for Wells Fargo, and has grown annoyed with the corruption in Tombstone.

The book is now available on Amazon Kindle or paperback:

A couple more characters from "Vendetta Ride: The True Story Of Wyatt Earp" by Gregory Alan Burhoe.

Henry Hooker owns and runs the Sierra Bonita Ranch, a massive cattle ranch in Arizona stretching across three counties. Henry is a hard-working businessman and a cultural figure, always dressing like an Eastern gentleman. His ranch hosts many important events, due its size and security. Henry has had to deal with countless raids on his livestock, large or small, by the Cowboys. Since the U. S. Government has agreed to help Mexico secure the border, raids on his business have only increased. Henry is an ardent supporter of the Earp faction, eager to see the alliance of murderous bandits brought down.

"Rattlesnake Bill" is a member of the Cowboys. Tough, fearless and outspoken, he isn't afraid to get his hands dirty.

Lou Cooley and Harelip Charlie

11/23/2019

Louis 'Lou' Cooley is a gambler, businessman and gunslinger. He once rode with the Cowboys, raking up pillaged wealth, before being dissuaded from his association with them by Virgil. Tough and fearless, Lou feels he can handle himself in any situation. He respects the integrity of the Earps, aiding them in their struggles against the Cowboys. With sharp and focused attentiveness, he's an ideal ally in reckless times.

Charles 'Harelip Charlie' Smith is so-named due to a congenital split on his upper lip. His birth had been difficult, from which his mother later died. He grew up in tough times as an easy target, due to his cleft lip. But Harelip Charlie valued the morals of his upbringing, and grew strong in character. He became a lawman in Texas, before moving to Tombstone for the silver rush. Wyatt, who's become good friends with him, sponsors many of his mining claims. Though Harelip Charlie is not much of a gunslinger, his strength and loyalty make him a good friend and ally.

Indian CHarlie and Sherman Mcmaster

11/21/2019

A couple more characters from "Vendetta Ride: The True Story Of Wyatt Earp" by Gregory Alan Burhoe.

Florentino 'Indian Charlie' Cruz is a Cowboy from both Indian and Mexican descent. He's been able to provide inside information regarding Apache raids on Tombstone, so they can better defend their friends and interests, as well as tips on Mexican ranches ideal for the Cowboys to raid. Under often-ragged attire, he dawns expensive jewelry stolen from dead Mexican and Apache leaders. Indian Charlie has also proven himself a deadly warrior, both as a knife fighter and a gunslinger.

Sherman McMaster was a Texas Ranger, before he'd witnessed enough travesty of justice to lose faith in law and order. After the arrest of Curly Bill, the witty and charismatic Cowboy leader managed to entice Sherman about a life of personal freedom and excitement. Turning his back on the system of law, Sherman set Curly Bill free and rode off to join the Cowboys. But after witnessing immoral acts that will forever haunt him, Sherman finds himself like-minded with Turkey Creek. Now he considers leaving and betraying the Cowboys to aid the Earps' efforts to bring them down.

Turkey Creek and texas jack

11/20/2019

A couple more characters from "Vendetta Ride: The True Story Of Wyatt Earp" by Gregory Alan Burhoe.

A veteran who fell on hard times, Jack "Turkey Creek" Johnson found a new family among bandits who fought against the system for their own survival. But as the Cowboys grew infamous, they became arrogant and downright viscous, throwing away huge sums of stolen cash like candy. And harming or killing on a whim. Disillusioned, Turkey Creek left the outfit, got married and became a clerk at a court. When his brother is wrongly imprisoned for a crime he did not commit, he turns to Wyatt for help.

John "Texas Jack" Vermillion is a good friend of Wyatt's. He's a religious man, yet also a gunslinger and gambler. Deeply principled, yet willing and able to fight with the best of them, he's a man Wyatt understands.
