Love these historical vignettes. Could listen to you all day. In another life you could have been an historian and made an excellent lecturer. I don't know how you find the time to do your research as well as the other stuff you do for InRange, but glad that you do find the time, thank you
As a PhD Candidate, I agree- the degree is really just an elaborate rite of passage. I have actually used one of Karl’s videos (on the Underground Railroad) in one of my classes, so he has been in the classroom after a fashion!
Thanks for bringing us these bits of history! As a foreigner, the American Old West isn't something well known about over here, so I'm thrilled that we have you guys bring us properly researched material in an interesting way. As you've said, the Old West is an important part of history, but not just for America. In a way, the Old West is a study in humanity, what people are really like with little oversight, poor enforcement of laws, if there any to begin with, and almost no connection to the greater world. Some folk became 'villains', others 'vigilantes' but most folk seemed just to want to life their lives, and be free. Until someone hurts the wrong person. Thanks Karl, and please keep these coming!
Thank you for posting these videos. I'm English but I've had an interest in the subject for more than 60 years. It's fascinating because people like Wyatt Earp were still alive during my father's time.
The difference between truth & myth is always fascinating. There is so much to learn from history & how it shapes the land, lore & people. I truly love all of the history that this channel provides, making it truly stand out.
Even though I mostly listen to them in the podcast format, I have to say I love that you do these on location and I really do enjoy going back and watching them again to see the visual. Thank you as always for the great quality work that you do on all your content!
Thank you so much for your video on The Earp brother.( Greetings from Pune City Jai Maharashtra) I've seen one western of James Garner about Wyatt Earp. My most favorite Wild West Town is Tombstone and the true account of October 26, 1881. Great story from your channel. Thanks again.
I truly love these history videos, they give an insight which would otherwise be very difficult to get. The delivery is excellent, the tone of voice, the pauses, the emphasis, the gestures and body language all contribute to make these videos truly informative. Well done, keep them coming.
I love these vignettes! Awesome look into the reasoning behind, and tactics of, long-ago gunfights. If you're ever in the area of western Louisiana or eastern Texas, would you consider a trip to Gibsland, Louisiana to cover the ambush of Bonnie and Clyde by a posse of Texas Rangers and Bienville Parish deputies? The town has a museum about the duo, their exploits, and their demise, right next door to the diner where they ordered breakfast right before being killed on the road. I'd love to hear your take on the gang's actions, the posse's tactics in the ambush, and other historical events about Clyde's gang and Depression-era motor bandits in general.
I love how specific you are with these Karl and don’t assume events to make it sound cooler. If something isn’t proven you tell us that. That’s why these are so valuable. It’s history as written down, not revisionist history like we see a lot today.
Ah...my old stomping grounds! My parents moved our family from Detroit to Tombstone in ‘69. So I started my schooling in kindergarten at Walter J. Meyer Elementary School, then through John L. Wyatt Jr. High, and finally graduated from Tombstone High School in ‘82. It’s been a handful years since I’ve last been back there. Thanks for the trip down memory lane. It was somewhat cathartic.
I love all the Southern Arizona Old West history videos. Having grown up in Sierra Vista, I miss that area greatly. Each video from near my hometown brings me back, if only for a few minutes. Great video.
I had initially come to find the Old west Vignettes late and they were old it made me sad seeing comments saying you guys were done, keep it up. We all love ya and hope you do more.
I love these vignettes! I live in SE AZ and read everything I can on the history. Karl, you do a great job of separating facts from opinions and myths. This is good history.
From an appreciative a Brit, I love these vignettes. Its always Good to learn about some history even if it’s another countries! Just a shame these video don’t get as many views as the deserve. Keep up the good work Karl.
Stumbling across ForgottenWeapons one day while doing some research on a ZFK-55 would never have been a trail that I would have considered one that would lead me to realize almost five years later that I live Just 10 minutes away from where Morgan Earp was laid to rest, where the Earps originated from and served under, and I never knew it until today. I had to do a double take when you mentioned Colton CA, as my first reaction was "surely you don't mean MY Colton, CA, the Crime-infested Colton that I know!?" It's actually rather disappointing, disheartening even, coming to the realization how little I know about history, the history of my very local area, and the United States as a whole. I've learned so much from InRange and your historical series (not to mention finally getting me into ACM matches and competitive shooting) that was never taught in school. I find it absurd that such a prominent historical relation isn't discussed far more in this very local community. As soon as I'm able, I'll be back to being a patreon supporter again, phenomenal work that y'all are doing!
Excellent video! You really got it right... for the most part. I don't care what Stilwell's alibi was. There's no doubt in my mind that Morgan was assassinated by Frank Stilwell, Pete Spence and one Frederick Bote, with Indian Charlie and Hank Swilling as lookouts. Wyatt thought John Ringo was involved, but that goes against the evidence, and against Ringo's character. Wyatt was deputized as a U.S. Marshal in December, 1881, and still held the title when he killed Stilwell, Indian Charlie, and Curly Bill Brocius. It was actually John Behan's county posse chasing Wyatt's federal posse. But Wyatt still held the title at that time. When Wyatt killed Indian Charlie, or Florentino Cruz, he was up at Pete Spence's wood cutting camp in the southern Dragoon Mountains. Wyatt went there looking for Spence, but as you said, Spence had turned himself in to the local law for protective custody. But you are correct on so many levels, far more accurate than most. The Wyatt Earp house, for example, is not where Wyatt and Maddie lived. It was indeed on the other side of Virgil's house, which sadly burned to the ground in the 1990s, not that long ago. It has been suggested that the so-called Wyatt Earp house may have been where James and Bessie Earp lived. But you've got my interest. I'm going to look for more of your videos! Thanks!
Wow, I'm so obsessed with the Earp brothers and the gun fight at the ok corral. This some good juicy stuff. Keep em coming. I'm subscribing to your channel.
I love everything InRange does, but I will admit, all of the history videos - Old West Vignette definitely included - are some of my favorites. Keep up the awesome work, Karl - Patreon dollars very well spent. :)
Old West vignettes series is some of the best content on the channel. Hopefully, prohibition gangster shootouts and 20s-30s armed robbers’ stories are in line as well. P.S. I am an immigrant, supporter of our (United States) Constitution and love to learn about real U.S. beyond what vanilla college classes with reluctant liberal professors provide.
I really appreciate what you do Karl, its great stuff. I don't have a particular interest in the Old West, well I didn't, but because of the content that I have seen, by you, I now am quite interested in the Old West. Thank you! No I can't be a patreon member right now but I will be in January and I will be very happy to help support this channel.
Love the history vignettes. Great work as always. I am a history buff myself, although i can't do hands on research and go on location. But i read a ton. As is so often the case, our heroes do not live up to the legend. Great to see the town as it is today, with what preservation they have been able to do. I hope to visit there one of these days when i have time for a vacation. Keep up the great work.
Great video. I happened to recently read the transcripts of the preliminary hearing stemming from the gunfight at the O.K. Corral. There was no trial, as the court determined at the conclusion of the preliminary hearing that there was insufficient basis to move forward with the prosecution, but the hearing itself was a kind of quasi-trial, in that it was much more extensive than a typical preliminary hearing, and both sides were really trying to make their case. I think it would make a great subject for a play or a movie, but it might be worth doing a video on, at least. It was definitely interesting to read.
Karl, I love these videos. Though I love everything InRange puts out, I especially look forward to these, and they are among the many reasons I'm a Patreon supporter.
Absolutely loving these. I have one to suggest. I dont know very many details, however outside of my hometown here in Globe Az there is a place called McMillanville. The site of the Stonewall Jackson silver mine. There was some sort of Apache attack/Massacre out there in the late 1800s. The townsite is actually privately owned now but I cant say by who exactly. And Im not sure what all is left out there. Just thought I would suggest it.
Great spotlight ,as always, on the details of legendary/romanticized events in the 19th Century West. Excellent research which fits in well with some rethinking on the OK corral itself.
I just Binge-watched the whole playlist. It was an independent study of the North American Midwestern History. Excellent in my opinion. I cannot wait to see more
Took a "ride" as a southern California resident to Tombstone. So cool to actually see the historic sites in person that are presented here. Of special interest to myself was a visit to the Bird Cage theatre . Original but restored. this theatre/brothel was a regular haunt for the Earps, Doc Holiday,Clantons and has numerous bullett holes in the walls to prove it. Musta been a wild place !
Keep the history coming, Karl. These tales need to be told. Like a historical Smoky the Bear, only You can help prevent Internet ignorance!
Can't agree more
I didn't know about the other guy getting shot when morgan was killed. I be damn.
If you want "accurate history"...don't say Smoky THE Bear. It's "Smoky Bear"....no more, no less.
Love these historical vignettes. Could listen to you all day. In another life you could have been an historian and made an excellent lecturer.
I don't know how you find the time to do your research as well as the other stuff you do for InRange, but glad that you do find the time, thank you
I think Karl is a historian and lecturer. His eye for history as it was - not how some might wish it was - is refreshing.
As a PhD Candidate, I agree- the degree is really just an elaborate rite of passage. I have actually used one of Karl’s videos (on the Underground Railroad) in one of my classes, so he has been in the classroom after a fashion!
Karl you need your own history show on the old West
If you mean on TV i disagree. Karls to good for that commercialized garbage
This is his own history show on the old west.
Videos like this wouldn't work on cable; not enough dramatization for TV.
I love how this channel and Forgotten weapons have been uploading at the same time lately.
all of these old west vignettes are a delight and i'm stoked every time y'all upload one

Well done as usual. I really enjoy these vignettes. Thank you.
Agreed

Old west vignette are tied for my favorite InRange content along with the Q&As. Thank you and keep up the great work.

Every time there's a new one of these old west videos I learn something new. It's my favorite ongoing series.
I like all the old west content but especially the factual historical stories and being on location makes it that much better
That bolt of lightening that happens at the time you mention his assassination is quite eerie.
I loved the stories of the old West since childhood! The Earps are my favorite people. Just subbed.⭐
2:34 It's not seen much since the end of the 19th century, however, in 1892 Geo. was a common abbreviation for George.
Ah...my old stomping grounds! My parents moved our family from Detroit to Tombstone in ‘69. So I started my schooling in kindergarten at Walter J. Meyer Elementary School, then through John L. Wyatt Jr. High, and finally graduated from Tombstone High School in ‘82.
It’s been a handful years since I’ve last been back there. Thanks for the trip down memory lane. It was somewhat cathartic.
This is the sort of content I prefer to see on the InRange TV channel, and is the reason I've subscribed.
I love old western history, so thank you Karl! Keep it coming please!
I love all the Southern Arizona Old West history videos. Having grown up in Sierra Vista, I miss that area greatly. Each video from near my hometown brings me back, if only for a few minutes. Great video.
Hit the like before the intro music stopped because I love these vignettes - keep them coming please!
Never heard of Mr. Fly before. Thanks for that tidbit, so I can take the dive into his story.
Love the Old West Vignettes. Thanks for making them!
I had initially come to find the Old west Vignettes late and they were old it made me sad seeing comments saying you guys were done, keep it up. We all love ya and hope you do more.

Desert Nomad Nice bike, brap on from America :p
Great Work Karl and Sarah these Old West Vignettes are some of my favourite content. I love watching them whenever they come up
The Vignettes are always enlightening thanks for your hard work.
Nice job, Karl. I love these vignettes.

Always love any of the old west vignette, and learning about the difference between history and hollywood!
"Tombstone Cemetary" seems somewhat redundant
Headstone Graveyard
Tautological.
Thanks, loved the video and it makes me happy to see Tombstone and SE Arizona again.
Thanks for this interesting (as usual!) old West vignette video, Karl; and thanks to the person filming, too who is also standing in the wind!
Great video Karl. You really do this content justice in the way you present these videos.
Thank you for the indepth and engaging material Karl. Keep these up!
I love everything InRange does, but I will admit, all of the history videos - Old West Vignette definitely included - are some of my favorites.
Keep up the awesome work, Karl - Patreon dollars very well spent. :)
Born and raised In North Phoenix Arizona. I love this stuff, keep it coming. Thank you
Love the history vignettes. Keep up the great work preserving and disseminating our history.
Old West vignettes series is some of the best content on the channel.
Hopefully, prohibition gangster shootouts and 20s-30s armed robbers’ stories are in line as well.

Wyatt Earp's rides were more like gang wars than justice
Yes.
@@SonsOfLorgar Tombstone wasn't really like that by the 1880's.
I just adore when i see another history nerd like myself.
Thank you for the clarity
Awsome video Karl!
I love the history videos on this channel like this !
A lot of great history told in a straightforward & enjoyable way. Subscribed!
These are excellent videos Karl. Please make more.......lots and lots more!!
I really like the historical content, keep it comin Karl!
This stuff and WWSD has me chomping at the bit for your notifications.
Love your history videos - please keep them coming
There's no history like old west history. I love this stuff!
This history and the mud/dust tests videos are my favorites. Great work.
These get a "like" before I even watch the video because they are always awesome.
Always exceptional content, thanks Karl
This is easily my favorite type of content you guys do. Can't wait got whatever comes next in this series
This is one of my favorite videos I’ve seen on InRange
I remember when the history channel did stuff like this. Thank you for doing it.
Back before they became a reality channel they had awesome content.
Thanks also for not attributing anything to "ALIENS!"
Keep it up Karl. Would love to see you come north to Colorado for more about the west
I love these old west stories keep them up sir
Do I like these videos? No. I freaking love them.
Love seeing your videos about the history of Southern AZ, especially when you cover things in cochise county. Keep it up!
Really digging these historical videos! Keep up the good work!

I must re read the Morgan Kane novel books again now soon . After a good episode like this is.
these are my favorite types of videos man !
Absolutely loving these. I have one to suggest. I dont know very many details, however outside of my hometown here in Globe Az there is a place called McMillanville.

Excellent video Karl!
Very informative, please keep up these historical videos!
I love this content. Keep doing it
Great job Karl. I´m not normally Wild West afficado, but your presentation and enthusiasm makes it interesting.
Also. Like number 556.
Carl, I love your historical videos. Great content
I’ve been to both where Morgan Earp was murdered in Tombstone, and where he is buried in Colton California.
Morgan Earp Was Canadian 🇨🇦
This series is like an informative version of the History Channel
Love this stuff Karl, keep it coming 👍👍
But wasn’t Wyatt a deputy US Marshall at the time of the Vendetta ride?
Great video, Karl! Thank you, I didn't know a lot of these details.
Great spotlight ,as always, on the details of legendary/romanticized events in the 19th Century West. Excellent research which fits in well with some rethinking on the OK corral itself.
Thanks! Keep these coming....
Love these historical videos.
I am such a fan of these. Love watching these after work, and my wife likes hearing them in the background while she bakes. :D
I appreciate your dedication
Love the old west vignettes, keep them up!
I just Binge-watched the whole playlist. It was an independent study of the North American Midwestern History. Excellent in my opinion. I cannot wait to see more
Awesome job Karl! Thanks for the highly informational video as always!
Luv these! Thanks Karl!
