Soon, with few job prospects, Doc Holliday is gambling professionally with his partner, Maria Katarina Harony, a high-strung, classically educated Hungarian whore. In search of high-stakes poker, the couple hits the saloons of Dodge City. And that is where the unlikely friendship of Doc Holliday and a fearless lawman named Wyatt Earp begins- before the gunfight at the O.K. Corral links their names forever in American frontier mythology-when neither man wanted fame or deserved notoriety. 600 10 Holliday, John Henry,|d1851-1887|vFiction. 600 10 Earp, Wyatt,|d1848-1929|vFiction. 650 0 Biographical fiction|vFiction. 650 0 Western stories|vFiction. 651 0 Dodge City (Kan.)|vFiction. 655 7 Biographical fiction.|2gsafd 655 7 Western stories.|2gsafd
