The Frontier World of Doc Holliday
ISBN: 9780803276086 / Angielski / Miękka / 1979 / 305 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. 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."
