My dad got me interested in reading True West Magazine. He owned grocery stores from January 1950 on until he retired in the 80’s, and all of the stores had magazine and news stands. I can remember going to see relatives in Tucson, Patagonia and Tombstone in the early 50’s through the my last visit in 2016. But my internet in the stories began when I was about 5 or 6. He would read stories that were published in True West and I would fantasize about being there at the different sights we had visited. By the time I was 7 or 8, I was seeking out the magazine when it was distributed to one of our stores. Now that I’m older, much older, I still enjoy the articles and stories along with Bob’s wonderful artwork. I’ve worn boots and a cowboy hat since I could walk, and started riding horses when I was 2. You see, in addition to my dad owning grocery stores and convenience stores, he was a rancher and we raised cattle to butcher and sell in our meat markets. In 2021 my last Quarter Horse, Cash died at 31 and 1/4 years old. And as I said, I’m getting old myself so now I just sit back and enjoy watching your videos and look forward to seeing each new publication of True West. Thanks for a lifetime of enjoyment, I’ve always felt I was born in the wrong century. God Bless!

So, I subscribed for both the digital and hard copy of the magazine. I would recommend that anyone who hasn't subscribed should do so. The work that you have done, as well as that you have inspired, is priceless. Thank you for all of that!

It must be fun being you Bob! Also about 20 years ago I had the honor of dropping in on Marshall Trimble totally unannounced and on the spur (no pun intended) of the moment. He was in his office at Scottsdale Community College (if my memory serves correctly) I couldn’t have been treated with more warmth and kindness by he and his secretary! He spent over an hour with me telling stories and sharing his vast knowledge of the Earps etc. I finally had to leave because of other engagements but I had the distinct feeling that Marshall would’ve stayed there for as much time as I wanted. His Western library is amazing as well. He’s one of the only people I’ve ever met who actually has a copy of Timothy Fattig’s book “Wyatt’s Earp” which I’ve looked for for ever since! What a true gentleman!

Thanks for your great work Bob! You know, I get the feeling, Wyatt Earp was never satisfied in one area too long unless he was making decent money. He seemed to be a wanderer. I get the feeling, he couldn’t wait to get outta Tombstone, AZ. Just from all the ordeals he went through and loosing his brother there, made Wyatt long for greener pastures. Can you imagine, as he aged, just looking at his older photos, I get the feeling, when I look in his eyes, I see a lot of pain and regrets in his past life. Yes, he was stoic in nature and didn’t say much, but he was a human being. Many of nights, I’d imagine he cried thinking about his brother and his past life, the hardships. I see sadness through his eyes of a hard-lived life with sadness. He missed his friend Doc Holiday immensely and longed for the times when he shared a friendship he never really could pen to paper. Doc Holiday was an outcast due to his consumption. But, Doc knew Wyatt truly respected him because Wyatt was a bit of a loner and outcast in his younger days. Something tells me, if you embellished or told tall-tales, you know, BS, Wyatt wouldn’t care for that type of person. If you were honest and easy-going, he would take to you.

I love these stories - as a geologist who once wandered the West in search of oil and even uranium, I found so many old cabins and read so many tales that seemed far fetched - I marveled at what their story was. And it was only going to Lincoln, White Sands, Three Rivers, and all those place that you understood Garrett, The Kid, Oliver Lee, and all those stories to be fascinating even when you were sure both sides telling a different story were doing so from a different perspective. And it was that way where ever I went - E Utah, Wyoming, SW Colorado, and places nearer my home in Oklahoma... good stuff.

Love your work Bob. For a Brit and a History Tragic/Freak; I love the stories relating to Wyatt Earp his brothers and the Clanton Cowboys. I first herd of Wyatt Earp when I was a teenager and saw the TV programme with Hugh O'Brian. I got a copy of the full series which I watch from wo to go four times a year. I have looked at all your programmes regarding this matter, which I greatly appreciate. I would love to visit the Little Bighorn Battlefield; the Alamo, Elsworth, Wichita, Dodge, Tombstone, Gayleville, Bisbee et al. Unfortunately; I am over a 24 hour flight fro the US, and use a four wheel walker to get about. Apart from that, you chaps in the US drive on the right hand side, and we drive on the left. A trip to the States back in 2015 scared the fertiliser out of me when driving. I am just content now to sit and watch your programmes, which are very informative. Best wishes and Regards to yourself and your family.

Many thanks Bob for another excellent presentation. Gee Whiz; I wish I could also walk where those chaps walked. I strongly believe that you cannot get an appreciation of history unless you walk the same paths. In fact; I am a British History freak and tragic. About 20 years ago; I returned home to the UK which I left as a child, to get the feel of all the various battle grounds going back to Roman times. I started out on a three week trip and ended up staying over 12 months; much to my wife's annoyance. Even in that 12 months; I hardly scratched the history surface, so I understand what you are saying when you said you are a strong believer in walking over the same steps as the characters of the past.

I LOVE this stuff!!!! I'm going to tell you a story you just might.like. I work with a young woke, gay girl who has maybe 3 drops of Native American blood. She is SUCH a victim and of course knows everything about Native Americans.(End of the Trail sums it up) I was talking to another woman in the office about all the things Geronimo did; teach school, farming, celebrity, selling his autograph and the buttons off his clothes and eventually dying a wealthy. Miss Woke butted in, red in the face and IN MY FACE she said, "I don't know what your source is but I DO KNOW Geronimo would NEVER have ridden in Roosevelt's parade!! And she swept out of the office, all her sails flying.So I logged onto her computer and gave her a new wallpaper. In large letters it says across the top Smithsonian Institute. You know the picture of course. And I put a little post it note that said Geronimo, with a little arrow pointing at his head. I haven't seen this unpleasant girl since, probably best for both of us.

F..in' A!! I too love to walk through history. I'm originally from Jacksonville Beach and visited St Augustine... never get enough. Then moved to Sierra Vista and discovered the "Old West!" Already addicted to history Cochise County just increased my desire for more. Thanks to actually Tombstone natives, I've learned much and I too prefer truth to fiction even if it's not flattering. That's why history is greatly fascinating!! Again, I love too put events into a setting perspective to better understand and I found this to be true here in Cochise County. I too have found artifacts from the prehistoric to mining era just by looking in and around my sister's home! Note: Cochise County was actually "Cachise," Apache Chief, but the AZ state recorder thought Cochise is better than Cachise, so it is now. Love the True West Mag!

As Steven Wright, he's a comedian, once said, "When you find something, it's always in the last place you look." Appropriate for the two ATV riders, don't you think. He also said "Well you can't have everything, where would you keep it." Observational humor is great because it applies to everyday life. Have a good one. Great info and a good story, with a satisfying ending.

I’m Jeff Morey. I was with Bob Bell when Bill Evans took us out to Cottonwood Springs. It was amazing how exactly the terrain matched Wyatt Earp’s description and hand drawn map.
