written, Buffalo Bill Cody is a spellbinding achievement that not only
reveals the truth behind this legendary subject, but also explores the
myths of the Wild West that he created, which live on to this day."

Hickok.Six-Guns 2207, Carver left his home in Illinois in 1857 at the
age of 17. His grandfather, Jonathan Carver, (In 1766, traveled for 2
years and 5 months, covering 7,000 miles, into the western frontier,
Minnesota.) had been given a land grant in Minnesota by the Sioux. Doc
went to claim the land and live on it. In route, he killed 3 men who
were about to rob him. He discovered that the government denied the
grant, but the Sioux took him in. He lived three years with the
Indians, becoming a medicine man for the Santee Sioux. He left in 1860
prior to the Minnesota Massacre. He was given the name "Spirit Gun,"
because he could hit targets with his rifle in the dark by sound. Doc
met "Wild Bill" Hickok in Springfield 3 days after Hickok had his
famous shootout with Dave Tutt. They partnered up and traveled earning
money in shooting contests, Doc with a rifle, and Hickok with pistols.
Carver became a trapper, buffalo hunter, and World Champion" shooter.
He started the Wild West Show with Buffalo Bill. They later split and
Carver ran his own show. Carver claims Cody as a fake. He said Cody
didn't do all that he claimed to have done, mostly made up from others
and Ned Buntline. Carver was champion of the world, as a shooter,
touring the U.S. and the world. He was especially good with a rifle.
Shooting from the hip was his specialty. As no one would challenge him
with rifles, he shot with shotguns, often giving odds. He died in 1927.
Raymond Thorp knew Carver and upon Carver's death, his belongings went
to his closest friend, Charles Nordin. Thorp's information comes from
these scrapbooks, newspaper clipping, programs, show bills, and letters
from kings, emperors and princesses. Material on Wild Bill Hickok,
Buffalo Bill, Texas Jack (The Poet Scout,) Belden the White Chief, Jack
McCall,and others. Very interesting reading. If it wasn't backed up by
