Sorrow of the earth : Buffalo Bill, Sitting Bull and the tragedy of show business
Vuillard, Éric2019
Books
Buffalo Bill Cody's world-famous spectacular of horse-riding and sharp-shooting toured all over North America and Europe, even performing for royalty such as Queen Victoria. But there is another side to this tale: that of the Native American participants in the show, of their humiliation and of the simplification of their painful and complex stories for popular consumption.
