Gunfight at the O. K. Corral

The Gunfight at the O. K. Corral is a legendary event which has been portrayed in numerous Western films. The actual event occurred in a vacant lot near the corral, in Tombstone, Arizona (a corral is like a livery stable[?]; the analogous location in Denver was called the Elephant Corral).

The fight was between Wyatt Earp[?] and his brothers, Doc Holliday[?], and the Clanton brothers.
