Item description from seller

First separate edition. A stand-alone reprint of Spring’s article on William F. ‘Buffalo Bill’ Cody’s lifelong relationship with horses—youth and frontier years, scouting and showmanship, and the mounts that shaped his public image—originally published in the 1948 Livestock Annual of Western Farm Life. Green stapled stiff-stock wraps with photo front and titles; 5.5 by 8.5 inches; 24 pages with black-and-white photo illustrations. The bindings are tight and square. Text is clean; light, even age-toning. Minimal shelf handling wear. Agnes Wright Spring (1894–1988)—state historian of both Wyoming and Colorado, prolific author on the Rocky Mountain West—wrote widely on Cody; this concise pamphlet distills her popular narrative of Cody as ‘above all else, a superb horseman,’ with period photographs and accessible prose. Subjects: William F. "Buffalo Bill" Cody; Horsemanship & cavalry mounts; Wild West show history; Rocky Mountain West; Agnes Wright Spring; Colorado/Wyoming historical writing; Western biography; Frontier history; Americana pamphlet; Equine history.…
