Omschrijving

Buffalo Days, Legends of Dodge City, is about outfits of buffalo runners who traveled in and out of the Arkansas River Valley from 1870 to 1872. The book is a collection of individual stories of how men became legends of their experiences, founded at times by luck, but mostly on their skills to survive. These are the stories of personal legends established out of solid character and the will to endure, making them unique to American lore. Here are the hunters such as Charles Rath, Josiah Wright Mooar, Jim White, Thomas Nixon, HooDoo Brown, Bill Tilghman, and Billy Dixon. The fully illustrated book is the second in a series of frontier books by Michael King based on the historical records of individual characters and their actions to become remembered as legends. These are the stories of legendary men told by the citizens of a fledgling town born out of the prairie that became known as Dodge City, Kansas. Many of the stories captivate the adventure, excitement, and experience of the Old West, tell the facts behind the individuals who were the founders of Dodge City and the events for which they participated in a less dramatized way. It is also the story of the greatest slaughter of any animal history: the great Bison herds of America. Michael King dramatically retells twelve distinct narratives of the great buffalo slaughter with striking, intelligently researched text and recollective illustrations and photographs. Michael King eloquently and graphically describes all aspects of the hunt and the hunters, including the beginnings of a town on the plains called Dodge City.
