Did Jeff Morey ever write a book on the subject?

Jeff and Bob Palmquist are currently writing a book on the OK shootout & the trial.

It was hoped it would be out this year in time for the 125th anniversary, but it wasn't.  I know University of Nebraska Press is going to publish it, possibly next year.

Have you ever heard/attended one of Jeff's lecture walks on the gunfight?  I had the opportunity once to take one in when we were both in Tombstone.  They are quite informative and interesting.

'Lo Mike,
I am most eager to read, and watch, anything I can regarding the Earps, good and bad, due to the fact that they were my great-gradmothers cousions (part of the reason for my alias). I'd like opionons about the most accurate and the best. As for me I'd say Wyatt Earp, for the former; and TRombstone for the later.
