First published in 1910, The White Indian Boy quickly became a western classic. Readers fascinated by reallife 'cowboys and Indians' thrilled to Nick Wilsons frontier exploits, as he recounted running away to live with the Shoshone in his early teens, riding for the Pony Express, and helping settle Jackson Hole, Wyoming. The volume was so popular that Wilsons son Charles was compelled to write a second book, The Return of the White Indian, which picks up in 1895 where the first memoir ends, telling the adventures of Nick Wilsons later life.These books, published here as a single volume, are testaments to a unique time and place in American history. Because he had a heart for adventure and unusual proficiency with Native American languages, Wilsons life became an historical canvas on which was painted both the exploration and the closing of a frontier, as he went from childhood among the Shoshone to work as an interpreter for the U.S. government on Indian reservations in Wyoming and Idaho in his later years. This volume includes new introductory material, a family tree, and a background of Indianwhite relations in Jackson Hole. Packed with amazing details about life in the Old West, Wilsons colorful escapades are once again available to a new generation of readers.
