Описание: In December 1883, five outlaws attempted to rob the A.A. Castaneda Mercantile in the fledgling mining town of Bisbee in the Arizona Territory. The robbery was a disaster: four citizens shot dead, one a pregnant woman. This comprehensive history takes a fresh look at the event that marked the end of the Wild West period in the Arizona Territory.
