This is my biography of William Frederick “Buffalo Bill” Cody, written when I was the director of the Buffalo Bill Museum & Grave. Wild Bill Hickok & Buffalo Bill Cody: Plainsmen of the Legendary West (2022, by Bill Markley) Produced on three reels by the Buffalo Bill & Pawnee Bill Film Co., this silent film was the first feature about Cody and included both real and fictional scenes from his life.
