"Helldorado" offers cinematic images of wagon trains crossing the
Great Plains, of Phoenix and Denver emerging from the dust and mud,
of Tombstone blazing through a silver bonanza, and of the railroad
joining East and West to change history. In his memoirs, originally
published in 1928, William M. Breakenridge is shown doing about
everything an enterprising and vigorous young man could do on the
frontier. After leaving Wisconsin at the age of sixteen, he became
a teamster, railroader; and lawman in Colorado, Arizona, and
elsewhere. He took part in the Sand Creek Massacre, here described
from his own point of view. "Helldorado" heats up in its evocation
of early-day Tombstone, where, as deputy sheriff, Breakenridge
encountered the Earp brothers, Doc Holliday, Bat Masterson, Luke
Short, John Ringo, and Buckskin Frank Leslie.
