The Wild West in
England by William F. Cody, edited by Frank Christianson

Army scout, frontiersman, and hero of the American West,
William F. “Buffalo Bill” Cody was also a shrewd self-promoter, showman, and
entrepreneur. In 1888 he published The Story of the Wild West, a
collection of biographies of four well-known American frontier figures: Daniel
Boone, Davy Crockett, Kit Carson, and himself.

Cody contributed an abridged version of his 1879
autobiography with an addendum titled The Wild West in England, now
available in this stand-alone annotated edition, including all the
illustrations from the original text along with photographs of Cody and
promotional materials.

Buffalo Bill from
Prairie to Palace by John M. Burke, edited by Chris Dixon

Advance man, press agent, and publicist extraordinaire, John
M. Burke (1842–1917) was instrumental in turning William F. Cody into the
iconic persona of Buffalo Bill. And with this biography, published in 1893,
Burke put the finishing touches on the legend that persists to this day.

This new, definitive edition includes the full text and all
the photographs and line drawings of Burke’s original, while providing critical
background on the literary sources, historical characters, and events that
figure in the work.

Both of these titles are also available in a special leather
edition shown below:
