Book Overview
Their names had become legendary: Buffalo Bill Cody, Wild Bill Hickok, Texas Jack Omohundro. None of them had any stage experience, but that didn't stop Cody from forming the Buffalo Bill Combination. All three would be appearing live on stage in a Wild West stage melodrama. Each of these three has his own story to tell of that exciting time, as they toured various cities in the East, and each tells his story in his own very distinctive narrative voice. Reviewers and audiences loved the performances, as is amply evident from reviews of the period, but Boggs takes you behind the scenes, privy to the hilarity but also occasionally the pathos of these legendary plainsmen as revealed in their own words.

By Thriftbooks.com User,
I quarrel slightly with the tag "Western"that has been applied to this book .Not only does it limit its potential readership but is only partly accurate .Yes ,it does feature legendary names from the Old West focusing as it does on Buffalo Bill ,Wild Bill Hickok and the lesser luminary Texas Jack Omahundro but it looks at them away from their natural habitat of the West and instead places them in the East on a stage tour...
