Customer Review: We bought this book for my son and his family (wife and 2 teens), and read it before wrapping it this Xmas. (I know, that's really cheap, but the times require it!)

Customer Review: Don't let this icon become lost. This book is an excellent account of the buffalos history.
Very informative is parts, very disturbing in others.
Customer Review: For any woman who has wanderlust or a sense of adventure, this is a good read. Having been to Wyoming and also felt the pull there, but not having been back,(yet!)
