Description
The Royal Buffalo Hunt: A New Perspective. In January 1872, a young nobleman from Russia arrived in North Platte, Nebraska, to embark on a grand buffalo hunt. His host was General Philip Sheridan, and the excursion included several of the West's most iconic characters. For years, incorrect information has surrounded this event, known as the Royal Buffalo Hunt. This book offers a fresh perspective on the occasion, combining archaeological and historical research to provide an accurate portrayal. The authors focus their investigation on the Red Willow Creek encampment site, where the party stopped along the hunt trail, using primary accounts, physical artifacts, and previously unavailable documents from the Russian State Archives. By weaving together these elements, the authors present a valuable product of microhistory, shedding new light on this pivotal diplomatic event.
