Everyone knows the name BUFFALO BILL, but few these days know what he did, or in some cases, didn't do. 
 
>>Was he a Pony Express Rider? 
>>Did he ride with Wild Bill Hickok?
>>Did he "scalp" countless Native Americans, or did he defend their rights?
 
This, one of the first significant biographies of Buffalo Bill Cody for younger readers in many years, answers all these questions and more. Follow the life of William F. Cody, from a childhood marred by tragedy to an adolescence that flirted with poverty and rebellion to an adulthood in which William transformed himself into Buffalo Bill and took the world by storm with his inventive shows and demonstrations. With copious archival illustrations and a handsome design, Presenting Buffalo Bill makes the great showman -- perhaps our first true global superstar -- come alive for new generations.
