Bob Boze Bell is an Old West speaker, humorist, author, artist and illustrator whose work has been called “hip, historically accurate and exciting.” Boze, as he’s called in his homeland (Kingman, Arizona), has published seven colorful and groundbreaking books on the West, with virtually all of them in multiple printings. Among the subjects—Wyatt Earp, Billy the Kid, Doc Holliday and his latest, a compilation of Classic Gunfights, Volume II, which came out in fall 2005. In 1999, Bell, along with two other passionate Old West friends, bought True West magazine and moved the editorial offices to Cave Creek, AZ. Now in its 55th year, the magazine continues to grow and features the distinctive style of Bell’s creative vision. In addition to his efforts for True West, Boze’s work has appeared in Arizona Highways, Playboy and National Lampoon. He has done numerous book covers and appears often on the History Channel, Discovery Channel and the Westerns Channel, where his historical expertise and art are often featured.
