Doc by Mary Doria Russell is set in Dodge City. The meticulous research delves into the lives of Doc Holliday and the Earp brothers during their stay in our fair cowtown. Russell's in-depth character development gives insight into life in Kansas during that time, and you get a look at the saloons, gamblers, cowboys, politicians [slimy of course], brothels and bordellos. Not to mention the dental practices of the 1800's.
