"Stunning overview"
Let's talk books!
Rating:
While one could argue that some of the finer points of the personal history (or should we say 'mystery') surrounding the life of Doc Holliday didn't get enough attention in this tome, THE ILLUSTRATED LIFE & TIMES OF DOC HOLLIDAY is a feast for Holliday enthusiasts as well as general fans of the Old West. The book is filled with what must be hundreds of portraits, artists' renderings, maps, etc., that only enhance the value of the book. A quick and entertaining read, this version of Doc's life is a wonderful overview and is highly recommended for anyone wanting to 'jump off' into studying the fascinating man who may or may not have been Doc Holliday.
