Buffalo Bill's adult life has been the subject of many biographies and fictional historical novels. But we tend to forget that he was a boy before he became an adult. Adventures of Buffalo Bill from Boyhood to Manhood fills that gap. It is one of the masterpieces by Edward Ellis, writing this time as Colonel Prentiss Ingraham. Recalling that the aim of the Dime Novels was to entertain (and sell more publications!), there is probably more than a grain of truth in this novel. At a minimum, it is jammed-packed with action, adventure, and entertainment.
Edward Sylvester Ellis (April 11, 1840 - June 20, 1916) used many pen names, Colonel Prentiss Ingraham among them.
