Frontier History.

Buffalo Bill's new book is receiving the most commendatory favors from the press all over the country. It is justly regarded as a most reliable and succinct history of the later Indian wars of the north. Buffalo Bill has had such a wide and varied experience on the frontier that one should read his book in order to obtain its fascinating and rich history. He deals with the early history of Wyoming as well as other places, and speaks frequently of Cheyenne, Fort Laramie, and other well known places hereabouts. Many of the circumstances related in the book are familiar to many of our residents, and they pronounce them reliable and singularly correct. Mr. Cody has also rendered invaluable service to the military in many campaigns against the Indians, and the officers attest to his efficiency and bravery.

The hardy frontiersmmen, of whom Buffalo Bill is the greatest now living, are rapidly passing away, and in a little while will be seen no more. Hence it is unusually interesting to read of the deeds of one who lived in our day and generation, and who may be called upon at any time to again take the field against the Indians as a scout.

All who love truthful tales of the frontier will do well to secure this book,
which is most handsomely printed, bound and illustrated, Frank E. Bliss, of Hartford, Conn., is the publisher.
