At that time the Indians of the famous Geronimo still roamed that part of the basin and staying in towns close to their hidden shelters was extremely dangerous due to the "raids" that the fearsome Redskins used to carry out from time to time.

Some desperate for life, a handful of brave people without fear of anything or anyone, and several nomads from the region, had instinctively gathered there, forming a near-town that managed to survive perhaps by a miracle or because the Indians, without giving them importance, they respected them.

But the unexpected discovery of the Tombstone mines changed the landscape there in a matter of months.

Tombstone is a story belonging to the Far West collection, a collection of novels developed in the American Wild West.
