This book was a treasure I found by accident while researching for my current project. It is based on the stories of one of the last buffalo hunters and fur traders of the prairies, Norbert Welsh. He tells his story to Mary in 1931 when he is 87 and blind. His stories will curl your hair. How the west was settled has a whole new perspective thanks to his honest, don't sugar coat it style.
