Any child of a certain age was brought up on a Buffalo bill Christmas album. Full of adventures and stories that the great man engaged in as he roamed the Wild West. It is a view perhaps not entirely in keeping with his true role in history but legends are hard to replace with reality. Here we publish his biography written by his sister. How accurate it is is certainly up for debate but it’s an excellent example of a man writ large.
