In 1883, Cody founded his own show, "Buffalo Bill's Wild West," a circus-like extravaganza that
               toured widely for three decades in the United States and later in Europe. Besides Buffalo Bill
               himself, the Wild West show starred sharpshooter Annie Oakley and, for one run, Chief Sitting
               Bull.


               A champion of women’s rights and a lifelong soldier, Buffalo Bill Cody was more than just a Wild
               West showman and buffalo hunter. But his larger-than-life persona, at times real and at others
               fictitious, is what lives on in the hearts and minds of fans of the frontier West.
