Description
Thomas Atherton always dreamed of leaving Boston and heading west across the great frontier. When he met the legendary Buffalo Bill at his famous Wild West Show, Thomas decided it was time to make his dream a reality. He saw his chance when he heard of a $5,000 reward to the first man to find a surviving herd of the nearly extinct buffalo. So he set out to test his mettle on a buffalo hunt.
