Buffalo Bill, the Border King; Or, Redskin and Cowboy

“Buffalo Bill, the Border King; Or, Redskin and Cowboy” is the first book in the “Buffalo Bill Border Stories” series by Colonel Prentiss Ingraham. Based on the adventures of the real-life Buffalo Bill (Colonel William F. Cody), Colonel Prentiss Ingraham aimed to keep the legacy of his dear friend alive by immortalizing him in print. While Ingraham's books are novels and take some artistic liberties, Buffalo Bill's life was full of enough adventure that fact and fiction blend together seamlessly in this important novel that recounts life in the Wild West.
