Items related to Frontier World of Doc Holliday
Synopsis
Eaten by tuberculosis, sustained by alcohol, John Henry â Docâ Holliday walked the streets of Dodge City, Dallas, Denver, Leadville, Deadwood, and Tombstone in their roistering heydays. The frail-looking dentist could be deadly when the drink wore off and someone crossed him. Doc Holliday was a paradox: respectable citizen and notorious gambler, gentleman and murderer, married to a prostitute called Big-Nosed Kate but devoted only to the memory of his mother. Pat Jahns includes a full and exciting account of the shootout at the O.K. Corral.

From Library Journal
Doc Holiday's name is immediately recognizable, but what most people know of him is based on romanticized accounts played out in the movies. This 1957 biography unearths the real Holiday, who in truth was a gambler and shootist but also a respectable citizen devoted to his mother.
