It tells the story of a quite remarkable man, William F Cody, known to most of us simply as Buffalo Bill. Of all the 'heroes' of the American West Buffalo Bill is the one who epitomises it most. He worked on the wagon trains, he herded cattle, he rode for the Pony Express, he trapped for beaver, he hunted buffalo, he prospected for gold, he hunted down horse thieves and, most importantly of all, he scouted for the army during the Indian wars. All that would have been more than enough for most men, but even while he was still scouting for the army he began a career on the stage which eventually led him to develop what is probably the most successful travelling show the world has ever seen.
