Tuesday 21 July 2015 is the 150th anniversary of what is generally accepted as the first shootout in the Wild West -  just one of the events that poet Dave Reeves will be celebrating in verse when he reads at Dudley Archives at 2.30pm. As part of the Archives’ Black Country Day celebrations, Dave, poet-in-residence at the Black Country Living Museum next door, will be mixing some new poems in with readings from his critically acclaimed book, Black Country Dialectics. Entry is free and everyone is welcome. More details and Map
