Jahns, Pat The Frontier World of Doc Holliday: Faro Dealer from Dallas to Deadwood
New York Indian Head Books 1993 1566191599 / 9781566191593 Hard Cover Fine Fine
Near-new condition. NO remainder marks or price clippings. NO writing, marks or tears inside book. 305 pages. Tight spine, bright pages. Synopsis: Eaten by tuberculosis, sustained by alcohol, John Henry Doc 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. 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. Biography: Pat Jahns also wrote The Violent Years: Simon Kenton and the Ohio-Kentucky Frontier. Roger D. McGrath, a professor of history at the University of California, Los Angeles, is the author of Gunfighters, Highwaymen, and Vigilantes: Violence on the Frontier.
