Thanks for the link, Yonuh. I read every word of it. Was amazed and intrigued to find Davenport, Iowa mentioned in the discussion of Kate's (Doc Holliday's friend) background.

I lived in Davenport for roughly 20 years. It's a community on the Mississippi River, across from Rock Island, Illinois. I never think of it in conjunction with Dodge City... Though I guess both cities DID exist at the same time.

Again, I was not previously familiar with Mary Doria Russell, but I plan to find this book and read it.
