The Great Plains Guide to Buffalo Bill by Jeff Barnes Soft Bound ISBN:9780811712934

"Buffalo Bill was a product of the American West. He hunted buffalo, scouted for the Army, fought Indians, birthed his internationally successful Wild West show, and was buried on a hilltop overlooking his revered West. Today, the footprints and heritage of America's quintessential Plainsman loom large. In The Great Plains Guide to Buffalo Bill, Jeff Barnes leads modern-day adventurers to every one of the way stations, battlefields, ranches, and arenas that shaped or figured in Cody's life. Plain enough, Buffalo Bill's legacy lives on, and chasing his shadows with this book will prove a wild but instantly pleasurable jaunt through a timeless Old West.' --Paul Hedren, author of First Scalp for Custer

"Anyone interested in the history of the West will enjoy this latest book by Jeff Barnes. He carefully examines the accounts of William F. 'Buffalo Bill' Cody's life--some true, some fictional, and others in between--and places them within the context of the Great Plains, and America as a whole, guiding readers to sites associated with Buffalo Bill and the momentous times in which he lived. It's an entertaining and helpful guide to both past and place.' --Steve Friesen, director of the Buffalo Bill Museum
