Resumen del Editor
Two young men in the gold fields of California spend a last evening together as one of them, very sick, confronts his own imminent death. The tenderness between them may seem idealized, but you understand by listening to this story how premature death from accident and disease haunted the lives of far more westerners than death by violence.
Performed by Terence Aselford, Thomas Keegan, Bradley Smith, Danny Gavigan, Eric Messner, Joe Brack, Nanette Savard, Casie Platt, Dylan Lynch, Richard Rohan, Kimberly Gilbert, Tim Carlin, Colleen Delany, Michael Glenn, Ken Jackson, James Konicek, Tim Pabon, Catherine Aselford, Christopher Graybill, Ted Stoddard, Patrick Bussink, Yasmin Tuazon, Gary Telles, Michael John Casey, David Coyne, James Keegan, Ren Kasey, Mort Shelby.

Historia
A deeply divided nation. Vicious politics. A shamelessly partisan media. A president loathed by half the populace. Smuggling and gang warfare along the Mexican border. Armed citizens willing to stand their ground and take law into their own hands.... That was America in 1881. All those forces came to bear on the afternoon of October 26, when Doc Holliday and the Earp brothers faced off against the Clantons and the McLaurys in Tombstone, Arizona. It should have been a simple misdemeanor arrest.

Historia
It is the last decade of the 19th century. The Wild West has been tamed and its fierce, independent and often violent larger-than-life figures – gun-toting wanderers, trappers, prospectors, Indian fighters, cowboys, and lawmen –are now victims of their own success. They are heroes who’ve outlived their usefulness.

Early Whitcomb's family needs a miracle. Their Iowa farm has been in the family for generations, but a long drought has withered their savings and left them in debt - and in danger of foreclosure. Early's uncle, Jesse, thinks he has the solution: to head West and dig for gold. Fueled by reports of prospectors striking it rich in the Rocky Mountains, Jesse can't think about anything but gold. Early is wild to go with him, as much for the adventure as for the gold. But the journey costs money - more than the boys can afford....
