And Listen to Banter from
the Algonquin Round Table

“Doc
Holliday’s Road to Tombstone” is real. You stand
with Doc and the Earps at The OK Corral, feel for
Mattie as she pleads with Doc to come home and
empathize when she enters the nunnery. Then when
Sister Melanie shares the rest of the story with
cousin Margaret Mitchell Mattie and Doc become
characters in “Gone With the Wind.”

During most of October my blog was a view
of Tombstone in 1881 and events leading up to The Gunfight at the OK Corral. The
last of that series was Witnesses to the Gunfight.
For a
change of pace I’ll be writing on a number of subjects – A Potpourri. Bogart,
Lady Liberty and in Writers, Writers, Writers…I'll talk about some of the great
wits of another generation. We'll listen in on some of the conversations at the
famous Algonquin Round Table and reflect on some of my 45 years in show
business.
