Griffin's travel narrative helps account for the extraordinary appeal of the Wild West mythology among European audiences, offering details about "Buffalo Bill" Cody, his business operation, and its cultural context unavailable anywhere else. As an authentic reproduction, with the benefit of Dixon's extensive research, this edition will be a key resource for scholars while also appealing to a more general audience."—Frank Christianson, editor of the forthcoming edition, The Life of Hon. William F. Cody, Known as Buffalo Bill "Although Griffin was an amazing man in his own right, his book is most important because he explores the European culture that eagerly sought Buffalo Bill's presentation of the story of America's Wild West and he lets the reader experience the European setting in which the performances played out."—Loren Pospisil, Nebraska History
