Steve Friesen: Buffalo Bill Expert - Epi. 62, Host Dr. Mark Sublette

Historian and Museum director Steve Friesen takes a detour from
his appearance at the Western Writers Association to drop by the
Medicine Man Gallery studio.  Mark and Steve take a
fascinating journey into the life of the Western legend Buffalo
Bill Cody and the many characters that would orbit the showman in
his lifetime. Interesting and outright surprising details about
the worldwide phenomenon "The Buffalo Bill Wild West Show" come
to life with Steve illustrating the impact these traveling
vaudeville performances had on the West as a whole. From the Pony
Express to the 1893 World Columbian Exposition in Chicago, this
episode is one that history buffs and art collectors alike can't
afford to miss.  Including discussions of Andrew Wyeth,
Molly Brown and a cadre of Western historical figures.
