Buffalo Bill was of the most famous and well-known figures of the American Old West. His legend began to spread when he was only 23. Shortly thereafter he started performing in shows that displayed cowboy themes and episodes from the frontier and Indian Wars. In authors words the reason for writing this biography were twofold.

Helen wanted to share with readers who Bill was personally and to present his true personality. _x000D_ Contents:_x000D_ The Old Homestead in Iowa_x000D_ Will's First Indian_x000D_ The Shadow of Partisan Strife_x000D_ Persecution Continues_x000D_ The "Boy Extra"_x000D_ Family Defender and Household Tease_x000D_ Indian Encounter and School-day Incidents_x000D_ Death and Burial of Turk_x000D_ Will as Pony Express Rider_x000D_ Echoes From Sumter_x000D_ A Short but Dashing Indian Campaign_x000D_ The Mother's Last Illness_x000D_ In the Secret-service_x000D_ Will as a Benedict_x000D_ How the Sobriquet of "Buffalo Bill" Was Won_x000D_ Satanta, Chief of the Kiowas_x000D_ Will Made Chief of Scouts_x000D_ Army Life at Fort M'pherson_x000D_ Pa-has-ka, the Long-haired Chief_x000D_ The Hunt of the Grand Duke Alexis_x000D_ Theatrical Experiences_x000D_ The Government's Indian Policy_x000D_ Literary Work_x000D_ First Visit to the Valley of the Big Horn_x000D_ Tour of Great Britain_x000D_ Return of the "Wild West" to America_x000D_ A Tribute to General Miles_x000D_ The "Wild West" at the World's Fair_x000D_ Cody Day at the Omaha Exposition_x000D_ The Last of the Great Scouts_x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_

Book Synopsis From Traveling Show to Vaudeville by : Robert M. Lewis
Download or read book From Traveling Show to Vaudeville written by Robert M. Lewis and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2007-10 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before phonographs and moving pictures, live performances dominated American popular entertainment. Carnivals, circuses, dioramas, magicians, mechanical marvels, musicians, and theatrical troupes—all visited rural fairgrounds, small-town opera houses, and big-city palaces around the country, giving millions of people an escape from their everyday lives for a dime or a quarter. In From Traveling Show to Vaudeville, Robert M. Lewis has assembled a remarkable collection of nineteenth- and early twentieth-century primary sources that document America's age of theatrical spectacle. In eight parts, Lewis explores, in turn, dime museums, minstrelsy, circuses, melodramas, burlesque shows, Wild West shows, amusement parks, and vaudeville. Included in this compendium are biographies, programs, ephemera produced by theatrical entrepreneurs to lure audiences to their shows, photographs, scripts, and song lyrics as well as newspaper accounts, reviews, and interviews with such figures as P. T. Barnum and Buffalo Bill Cody. Lewis also gives us reminiscences about and reactions to various shows by members of audiences, including such prominent writers as Mark Twain, William Dean Howells, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Carl Sandburg, Walt Whitman, Louisa May Alcott, Charles Dickens, O. Henry, and Maxim Gorky. Each section also includes a concise introduction that places the genre of spectacle into its historical and cultural context and suggests major interpretive themes. The book closes with a bibliographic essay that identifies relevant scholarly works. Many of the pieces collected here have not been published since their first appearance, making From Traveling Show to Vaudeville an indispensable resource for historians of popular culture, theater, and nineteenth-century American society.
