First   published in 1910, The White Indian Boy quickly became a western classic.   Readers fascinated by real-life 'cowboys and Indians' thrilled to Nick   Wilson’s 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 Wilson’s 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   Wilson’s 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, Wilson’s 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 Indian-white relations in Jackson Hole.   Packed with amazing details about life in the Old West, Wilson’s colorful   escapades are once again available to a new generation of readers.
