very brief overview of Bill Cody

while it was nice to have a short book to finish my evening, I feel like this just a highlight, or even cliff notes version of Cody's life. I know it's not CH's deal to be very thorough in their stories, but this one seemed a bit lackluster. hopefully, if they have one on James Hickok, it'll be a.bit more comprehensive.

Good to Know

Don't let what you thought you knew about the west to stop you from listening to this book.

buffalo bill

I really enjoyed this book. I had no idea that he had accomplished so much in his lifetime.

Monetizing the mythological Wild West

Read the headline; this was the man.

Unfortunately he also cheated on this wife & killed a lot of buffalo.

This is a good quick & dirty intro. The film versions tend to skimp on the facts, so these intros are essential.

Buffalo Bill

Due to the early death of his father William Cody did what he could to support his mother and sisters. He worked for the pony express where he met Wild Bill Hickok who later would join him on stage. William Cody joined the army where he acquired the Buffalo Bill nickname. A chance encounter led him to his first time on stage and with much persistence he finally agreed to return to the stage and the rest is history. Good read.

Eye-opening and very informative

I had no idea Buffalo Bill was a rancher & actor. Narrator was good. Recommend

Awesome Sauce

Never heard of Buffalo Bill before. After listening to this short biography, I can see why there might be some fascination about him. Very well done and good narration.

Biography Buffalo Bill Cody

More than an Entertainer, Cavalry, Scout, Rancher, Indian Agent & Advocate, who brought the Wild West back to the East. A short, but interesting biography of William Cody, who has been immortalized in many fictitious reports and stories. The narrator had perfect diction, but imparted little emotion to the reading of this biography. Unaccustomed to, and not expecting a British accent, it took me a little while to adjust to it at first. Overall, an interesting historical account of one of America's Western Folk heroes. On a personal note, it was liberating to sit back and just listen to the narrator tell the story without having to hold anything, flip pages/swipe screens, etc. I received a free pre-release copy of this audiobook, in exchange for my impartial review.
