| Summary | "Buffalo Bill" from Prairie to Palace: An Authentic History of the Wild West, compiled by John M. Burke, is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work focuses on William F. Cody, famously known as Buffalo Bill, highlighting his life as a quintessential figure of the American frontier and the Wild West. The book showcases Cody’s adventures, his role as a scout, and his influence in shaping the mythos surrounding the American West. The opening of the work provides an introduction to Buffalo Bill's early life and the dynamic environment of the American frontier during his upbringing. It discusses his family's journey from Iowa to Kansas and outlines the challenges faced by settlers and Native Americans during this tumultuous period. Thrust into a life where self-reliance and courage were paramount, Cody's childhood amid hostile territories and conflict helped forge his identity as a scout and a celebrated figure of the Wild West. The narrative sets the stage for the unique blend of adventure and historical fact that characterizes the rest of the book, aiming to separate the man from the legend by presenting an authentic account of his exploits and contributions.
