A very entertaining historical novel, weaving a (fictional?) central character in with actual people and events of the American West. Jack Crabbe encounters Sitting Bull, Wild Bill Hickock, Calamity Jane, Wyatt Earp, Bat Masterson, General Custer and others, and is present at many memorable events.

This was made into a popular movie in 1969 starring Dustin Hoffman.
