Adventures of young Buffalo Bill

Following the death of his father, Bill joins a wagon train to the west, where he is befriended by the famous marksman, Wild Bill Hickock.

After the death of his brother, eight-year-old Bill Cody and his family set out from Iowa to make a new home for themselves in the volatile Kansas Territory.

With the threat of further violence from pro-slavery border ruffians ever-present, nine-year-old Bill must run the farm, even after his father comes home to recuperate from his knife wound, and go to school.
