  • Product Description

    "An excellent book based on exhaustive research and written with fresh insight. It is a spellbinding accomplishment and brings both the man and his era to life. . . . It is an extraordinary achievement."
    -Arizona Daily Star

    "Carter presents this astounding tale in a very balanced fashion, providing both the nineteenth-century rationale and his repug-nance at acts today considered shocking. . . . Through Carter's writing, the heroic and ultimately sad life of a remarkable human being makes a deep impact."
    -Richmond Times Dispatch

    "A comprehensive, sharply rendered life of showman William `Buffalo Bill' Cody pries realities away from legend. . . . A splendid portrait of Cody's life and times, at once poignant, boisterous, and disturbing."
    -Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

    "There's a large audience for American, and particularly Western, history, and those readers will not want to miss this genial account."
    -Publishers Weekly

    "This is the remarkable story of an amazing life. Cody not only lived the adventure of the frontier, he helped create the American West of the imagination. A fascinating story and a must-read for anyone interested in the evolution of the Western myth."
    -Casey Tefertiller
