Wonderfully told memoir of a true pioneer, buffalo hunter, scout, and crack shot at Adobe Walls. A different perspective of a very pivotal time in plains settlement.

This is a great book. Especally if your into buffalo rifles and buffalo hunting. Most of the book is on his life as a hunter. Great descriptions of life back then. Anyone interested in that period will not be unhappy with this book.
I've read this book several times now. I live very close to most of the areas that were described within the book by Billy Dixon (about 12 miles from Buffalo Wallow). This part of the Panhandle is fairly remote today, I can only imagine what it was like in the 1870's. If your a plains history, Indian War's history, or buffalo hunter history buff, you will love this book.
Excellent book! A autobiograph of Dixon, who is famous for his long distance shot at Adobe Walls. This book will tell much more and is insightful to that period 1870's and what life was really like.I would highly recommend to fans of the Old West, but is just a plain good read.
