• Wyatt Earp : [Opening Narration]  As late as 1879, frontiersmen would not believe that the great herds of buffalo had vanished for all time. The truth was that they had been slaughtered after twenty years of ruthless hunting. But both white men and Indians clung to the myth that the buffalo were hiding in the mountains of Wyoming and Montana and they would move back to the prairie some day. Realists, like Marshal Earp, knew that this was nonsense. But men are seldom proof against wishful thinking and the folly of a cherished dream.
