This book is a new novel about Johnny Ringo, the gunfighter many believe was the fastest gun that ever lived. His reputation with a gun first developed during a range war in Texas, the Mason County War. Ringo is best known for his confrontations with Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday in Tombstone, Arizona. Those confrontations occurred both before and after the gunfight at the OK Corral. Many say that famous gunfight would never have happened if Ringo had been in town that day. It was widely known that Wyatt was deathly afraid of Ringo.
Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From the Publisher
While most books on Johnny Ringo are biographies, this book is a novel. What happened to Johnny Ringo is considered by most to be an unsolved mystery. Historians have their opinions and speculations, but no living person knows for sure what happened to the famous gunfighter. This author unveils a completely new theory on Ringo, weaving the story both out of known fact and what might have really occurred.
From the Author
It is my sincere hope that you enjoy this story - Jason McCord

Good Depiction of Ringo,
By Justin (West Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Johnny Ringo: Unknown Destiny (Hardcover)
I really liked this book. Ringo is presented as a complex character with both good and bad qualities. Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday are pretty much painted the same way. It's not often that you see the Gunfight at the OK Corral unfold as anything but a tribute to Earp. This author did a good job of describing the events in an even handed manner. Before finishing the book, I found myself identifying strongly with Ringo. This is a good story. I've recommended it to several of my friends and they liked it as well.

Heckofa Good Story,
By Texan (Central Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Johnny Ringo: Unknown Destiny (Hardcover)
My wife and I read this book and we both liked it. I bought it at a book signing in San Angelo. I consider myself pretty knowledgeable on Ringo; he was in the Mason County War in Texas near here. At the book signing McCord seemed to know a lot about Ringo. I'd say he did his homework. The book is a novel, and the author did put his own twist on it. We thought it was a good read.

Women will love this one,
By barb of san antone (San Antonio) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Johnny Ringo: Unknown Destiny (Hardcover)
I loved this book. I'm a great fan of books on the gunfighters of old west. This one did not disappoint me. You can't help but fall in love with Ringo. There is a part of this story about a lady named Melinda that is most exciting adventure I have read ever in a book.
