1 JAHNS, PAT The Frontier World of Doc Holliday : Faro Dealer from Dallas to Deadwood
New York Indian Head Books 1957 1566191599 / 9781566191593 Hard Cover Very Good in Very Good dust jacket 
305 pages, cloth, dj, very good. This biography of the legendary John Henry "Doc" Holliday, the Georgia dentist who became the most famous faro dealer of his time, shows him to be a frontier paradox: though considered to be a poor shot, he is reputed to have killed more men than Wild Bill Hickock, and never stopped a bullet during a 15 year association with some of the most famous and infamous gunmen of the Old West including Wyatt and Morgan Earp, the Clantons, Johnny Ringo, Frank McLowry and others. If Doc Holliday failed to live up to the role later invented for him, in the words of Pat Jahns, he made up for it 'by the diversity of his characteristics and accomplishments - being a tubercular, and alcoholic, a lawman, a gentleman, a friend, a complex, intelligent person - holding on to his strange motto and fantastic loyalties though they killed him.'
