Holliday, D. D. S., better known as Doc Holliday, has become a legendary figure in the history of the American West. In \u003ci\u003eDoc Holliday: A Family Portrait, \u003c\/i\u003e Karen Holliday Tanner reveals the real man behind the legend. Shedding light on Holliday's early years, in a prominent Georgia family during the Civil War and Reconstruction, she examines the elements that shaped his destiny: his birth defect, the death of his mother and estrangement from his father, and the diagnosis of tuberculosis, which led to his journey west. The influence of Holliday's genteel upbringing never disappeared, but it was increasingly overshadowed by his emerging western personality. Holliday himself nurtured his image as a frontier gambler and gunman.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUsing previously undisclosed family documents and reminiscences as well as other primary sources, Tanner documents the true story of Doc's friendship with the Earp brothers and his run-ins with the law, including the climactic shootout at the O. K. Corral and its aftermath.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis first authoritative biography of Doc Holliday should appeal both to historians of the West and to general readers who are interested in his poignant story.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 368\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.8 x 8.4 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 15, 2001\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51978431103277,"sku":"9780806133201","price":23.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0938\/3185\/6429\/files\/SWYrMGZQNFF6S1o4dXAzN2hjcGREZz09.webp?v=1775805118","url":"https:\/\/ishookbooks.com\/products\/doc-holliday-a-family-portrait-paperback","provider":"iShook Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
