He was the most famous man in America, a scout of the frontier who at fourteen carried messages through hostile territory during the Civil War, rode across lands claimed by Native tribes, hunted bison herds, and brought the Wild West to the great cities of the world. William F. Cody, known as Buffalo Bill, captivated kings and presidents and paid a heavy price for his fame. For the first time, this four-part saga tells the complete story of his life in novel form, vivid, historically grounded, and driven by dramatic turns. From the plains of Nebraska to the battlefields of the West and the arenas of America's East Coast, this book follows the rise of a man who shaped an era that became legend.
